It is important to strategically communicate the internship program to those who would be a good fit for the business. You can utilize existing networks or build relationships with new partners.
There are many formats to communicate information about the internship program. A flyer or newsletter blurb, a page on the website, a social media post, and a career fair or conference (in person or virtual) are all great avenues to communicate and promote an internship program. Fleet Feet recruitment cards are also a great option.
Make sure to include the following information in publicity efforts:
Brief overview of the business, organization, or agency
Description of the internship program or position
Pertinent dates in the application process
Point of contact or ways for interested candidates to learn more
