Be a SUPER candidate

According to NACE, in 2011, companies surveyed indicated that more than 58% of their

new hires were interns at their company

42.3 percent of college seniors who had internship experience and applied for a job received at least one job

offer VERSES 30.7 percent without internship experience .

Internships increase your chance of getting a job

Survey results show the median accepted salary offer for students with an internship was $45,301

That’s nearly 31 percent higher than the $34,601 median accepted salary offer to non-intern students
