Celebrating 12 years as the "Career Development Center"
Focus...Goals...Results...LOYALTY Helping graduates to launch their career, while benefitingcompanies...We place university and college graduates on a paid internship, where there is a full time job opening. Internships help graduates secure the much needed experience they require to launch their career. Internships help companies to save money while trying a loyal graduate who comes to them with no bad habits, high energy, dedication and no resistance to change or corporate culture .
Over 90% of the graduates we have placed during the past twelve years have received a full time job offer. Over 55% of the Interns become first or second level managers within 3 to 4 years and over 92% are still with the same company they interned with. Long term loyalty in a world where most people change jobs every few years is a tremendous asset and savings for employers.
