When creating a job posting, first determine suitability for an internship or student hire. An internship provides students with a chance to achieve meaningful professional development aligned with their field of study, presenting hosting employers with enhanced long-term recruitment prospects. On the other hand, a student hire can span various fields and durations based on the employer’s needs, while still providing the same recruitment possibilities. In either case, the employer promotes their brand with future candidates on campus through student experiences.
