When I was recently contacted by the PRCA to recommit to our pledge on paying interns, it made me wonder: what sort of company does not pay interns? We have had a fully salaried intern recruitment position annually for more than a decade and have used this globally to bring in lots of interns to the business and to train them either to stay with us (great) or to move on in their careers. We've had the pleasure of paying interns to learn their trade with us, and have provided a great springboard for other businesses to benefit from the training we give our staff if they move on later. This is a win/win for us, for interns, for future employers. Why would anyone not pay a fair salary to somebody who is working for their organization? Personally I do not feel it is fair to ask anyone to work for our business without payment for their services. I guess when all companies pay, it will be more of a level paying field, but if companies continue not to pay, there is a continued expectation that this is about 'taking advantage'. We've employed a great cohort of interns over the years, and I would be embarrassed to have taken advantage of their wish to 'get on the ladder'. So The Scott Partnership Ltd has only ever paid its interns and will continue to do so into the future. #internships #intern #B2Bmarketing #B2BPR PRWeek

Most times the small details leave a big impact #branding Our goal was for the attendees to feel seen and appreciated for all of the work they do year round, complete with a customized experience and pillows that doubled as favors! One of the summer interns was super excited to leave the event with a pillow in each color to commemorate his Summer internship, and we’re hoping they serve as a reminder to come back full time after school! And again we say, many times the small details make a big difference.

They're accounting interns... Of course they check their emails 20 times before they send them. Of course they're always overdressed. And, of course their lunches consist of snacks from the break room. ⭐ Happy National Intern Day to our summer 2024 interns! We appreciate all that you do. #internship #summerinternship #nationalinternday #video

Today we welcomed the remainder of our 2024 summer interns. Welcome! To make sure all our interns get the most of their experience, we asked Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer Alison Nasisi, along with three former interns now full-time colleagues, what advice they have for our Class of 2024 interns. Watch below: #internship #intern

All great things must come to an end. As we wrap up our summer internship program, we want to express our gratitude to our incredible interns.

Our company was looking for interns this year, and I was surprised by the number of people that reached out. After taking some time to reflect, here are some tips I’d like to share to make you stand out as an applicant for an internship. 1.) Ask us about what our day to day looks like- this shows a deeper level of interest in the company, will give you a better idea of the career, and the feedback you receive will help you understand if you are a good fit. 2.) Ask for help on a project. Showing you have a genuine interest in your craft, and are open to learning, will make you stand out. We are excited to teach and learn with you! 3.) Do not ask for a recommendation or referral from anyone right off the bat. We are here to work together, not to use each other. Create real conversations with people, recommendations and referrals will come naturally. Remember, I want to help people succeed. I am fortunate to work at a company where we all want to elevate each other. What makes us special is our passion and drive to create the best pet care products on the planet, which has created an extraordinary culture.
