The Evanston Scholars RISE (Relevant Internships for Successful Employment) program supports Sophomore College Scholars as they work to secure internships, research opportunities, or fellowships during the summer break. We want our Scholars to begin the process of launching their professional careers well before college graduation. Here, Cindy Santiaguillo (University of Illinois Chicago) shares what she's looking forward to about her summer internship at MERGE through CareerSpring. Thank you to our Career Partners for supporting our Scholars with opportunities to learn and grow professionally.

Did you know that only 7.9% of paid internships are currently secured by Hispanic students? This statistic highlights a significant opportunity gap that we have to fix to build a more inclusive and diverse workforce. As employers, we have a unique opportunity to make a tangible impact. By offering paid internships, we can create better opportunities for students from diverse backgrounds and ensure that economic barriers do not hinder their professional growth. By making these changes, we can bridge the gap and ensure that Hispanic students, and all students from diverse backgrounds, have equal opportunities to thrive in their careers. Let’s work together to create a future where diversity is not just an aspiration but a reality. Your efforts in offering paid internships can help shape a more inclusive and equitable workforce. #PaidInternships #HispanicStudents #FutureWorkforce #wearethefuture #CareerGrowth #latinos

This is one of the reasons we will be launching managed internships for students in the Spring 2025 semester. Internships can be an extraordinary component in allowing students to get comfortable in the field and hit the ground running post graduation. It’s also an amazing way to vent candidates before they graduate and makes the full time employment transition easier for companies. However it can be hard for all students to participate not just because of the application process but they might have personal issues that prevent them from taking an internship. Transportation, childcare, and financial considerations might prevent students from even applying in the first place. Students with an interest in working in the tech field (both technical and non-technical majors) at Maryville University of Saint Louis will have the opportunity this coming spring semester to participate in on campus managed internships building, designing and developing technical tools for faculty, staff and our community. #internships #technology #highereducation #artificialintelligence https://lnkd.in/ghpVcZeG

According to a 2022 study by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, around 68% of paid internships end with full-time job offers, which is a testament to the strategic role internships play in the hiring process. Whether paid or unpaid, these experiences can significantly enhance a young professional’s marketability.* #NEWmfg #InternshipDraftDay2024 *Internship Prep: The Ultimate Checklist for 2024 Interns https://loom.ly/-Pu2tvc

Hi All, I remember around this time last year, seeing my LinkedIn feed flooded with peers posting their #internship offer letters. College professors emphasized the importance of having an internship on your resume to stand out during campus placements & I would feel behind.   Having spoken to some of my peers, I know most #unpaid internships teach you little to nothing as let’s be honest, you will just end up cloning a repository with similar specifications as your projects. Most #recruiters know what you "learn" in these unpaid internships. So, there's no advantage there. There is a way to get an advantage though. It is by showcasing initiative & knowledge of basics via certifications. I have made a video where I talk about different courses and internships to learn as well as get a certificate.
