4 ways to create a successful internship program

Managers have a role to play to ensure their internships benefit both the student and the company. Here are four tips for creating a successful internship program.

1. Create a job description

Interns often arrive at your company with little to no work experience. Without clear direction and specific guidelines, they may flounder. Define the role, assignments and expectations before the internship begins.

2. Conduct performance reviews

Performance reviews allow your interns to grow, learn and become more productive during their stay. Provide constructive criticism to let your intern know what they’re doing right or wrong.

3. Find or be a mentor

A mentor provides guidance, motivation and support to their mentees and can be a tremendous help to inexperienced interns who may not know the internal ropes of the organization. If you don’t have the capacity, designate someone you think may provide your intern with the advice they need.

4. Include interns in social gatherings

Interns will feel more invested in your organization and motivated if they’re included in social events. If your company takes part in volunteer activities, invite your interns to take part.

Lastly, get the most out of your intern by keeping them busy with short- and longterm assignments.

Wednesday, March 29th is fast approaching! Job seekers, prepare your resumes to bring to the 9th annual job fair and community connections event, taking place in two sessions: from 10am to 1pm & 3pm to 6pm at the Cornwall Civic Complex in Salons A, B & C.

The Social Development Council of Cornwall and Area has been hard at work preparing this event, which will connect job seekers with hiring employers and service providers in the areas of Cornwall, Stormont, Dundas, Glengarry and Akwesasne.

“The Employability Network is well aware of the current labour shortage communities across Ontario are facing and is resonating in our region,” says Carilyne Hébert, Executive Director of the SDC. “We look forward to working with our local employers once again to support them in their recruitment needs.”

A new addition to this year’s event is resources specific to Cornwall’s newcomers. This event will provide asylum seekers with the employment opportunities and introduce them to local service providers like St. Lawrence College, the Eastern Ontario Training Board, JobZone, and more.

“This collaboration will allow our newcomer community to get a better understanding of the employment opportunities that our area has to offer and connect them directly with service providers - which will help them get that support they need to succeed with their transition. Our growing community, make our newcomers feel welcome and encourage them to establish themselves in our area.” Martha Woods, Executive Director of the Eastern Ontario Training Board.

Hundreds of job seekers are expected to visit the Civic Complex on March 29th. More than 55 local employers from a great cross-sector of industries and 18 service providers have already signed up and are looking to fill more than 700 positions.
