FYI, if one of the "expectations to be understood" coming in is that they likely won't be getting a job, tell them that straight up. That's what I'm talking about. The expectation of interning at Microsoft or whatever is that 70% of the interns will be getting full time jobs. If that's not the case for you, be frank about it.
- thewordpainter 15y agowe're on the same page. they understand that the internship lasts a set timeframe. during the fall/spring, it's just an externship to help them boost their resumes. during the summer, they know it ends when they go back to school. i did a terrible job conveying it earlier, but i am very clear about the expectations up front when i originally sit down with the prospective interns to see if it's a good fit for both parties.
