9yWe have acknowledged that the internship program needs more structure. Moving forward, we have created a program to engage our interns more.
The work and mentoring provided is heavily influenced by the business needs. At times, work may seem repetitive, but it is a true exposure to the actual business. Just like in any business, there might be times that may be busier and times when the business might taper off a bit. While we are going to make more of an effort to have more planned activities for our interns, asking for work shows a desire to be productive and an initiative we hope to foster in our interns. We also want to make sure that our interns have the chance to develop themselves, as if they were in a career role. This might include reading publications related to the business, working on a marketing campaign, or doing a presentation on something related to small business growth.
Even though our business has been long standing, we are still a small business. Our organization and structure is always developing and growing. We always appreciate feedback to help our business function more fluidly.
