This week we welcomed 80 summer interns into our Capital Markets business, representing the top 1% selected from over 6,000 applicants! Some of my most valuable experiences came from my internships, shaping not only my professional life but also my personal journey.   During my first one at Arthur Andersen (at the time part of the Big 5!), I discovered two things: that public accounting wasn't for me, but that I had a passion for client management. This realization allowed me to shift full focus to business and finance. The following summer, my interest in technology and finance was sparked during my Hewlett-Packard internship, but I realized I was seeking a more entrepreneurial environment.   The final piece of the puzzle was my first job, a short run at tech start-up ReplayTV at the end of the tech boom in ‘99. This was followed by a great opportunity at a high growth start-up, Good Technology. However, I ultimately decided tech was not my passion and shifted my sights to commercial real estate. With the invaluable support of my mentors at Good Technology (thanks Danny Shader, Joel Jewitt), I wrapped up my role there and moved to Dallas to pursue CRE.   Without these formative experiences, I wouldn't have discovered my passion, and it’s why I love welcoming new interns to our program at JLL. I hope this experience helps them find their passion and shapes their future as profoundly as my internships shaped mine. #jllcapitalmarkets #internship #future #personaldevelopment #passion

Congratulations summer interns🏆 are you ready to get to work? One thing I think is important for this new summer intern class to work on is utilization, each sprinkle on the cupcake represents a different way to use the L'Oreal makeup. What can you as interns do to make sure I get my money's worth by using every bit of makeup I buy from L'Oreal? The words fun and vibes are really good to use if you are just introducing yourself for the first time. When you're investing money on these types of products you expect them to be there even after you complete your marketing interview. What secrets have you learned from working behind L'Oreal?

Before your start your summer intern process, here are a few tips to make the process smoother. https://lnkd.in/eBB3QFr2 #summerinternship #hrconsulting

This summer, Origin Healthcare has recruited four interns to have the chance to be part of contributing to several company initiatives. Say hello to our new intern team! 👋 Our interns have dived into their roles, gaining valuable skills and insights in their first week! Here’s how we’re taking these lessons forward: #1: Roadmapping 🏁 Starting an internship can be daunting, but mentors Hailey How and Christine Lum Lung, introduced a transformative approach: working backward to set goals. By focusing on the end results and planning steps to achieve them, interns learned to manage time and structure responsibilities effectively, turning initial uncertainty into an organized and enriching process. This strategy will provide an efficient means of project progress. #2: Ownership of Our Work 🔑 Working at a startup with founders from prestigious backgrounds could be intimidating at first for interns who are beginning to sharpen their expertise in the field. However, the mentors encouraged the intern team to take full ownership of their projects, which gives us a sense of larger responsibility and leadership for our work. Because of this responsibility, we take pride in our work and strive to deliver the best results! Join us in celebrating the achievements of our talented interns as we continue to grow and make meaningful contributions to Origin Healthcare! - Intern Team Leads, Maddy and Thanusree

🚀 Ever thought hiring an intern was more trouble than it's worth? Think again! 🔑 With the right groundwork and alignment of expectations, welcoming an intern into your team can be a game-changer—not just for them but also for you. 🤝 The intern-manager relationship is a two-way street. By providing the right environment and investing in their growth, you're gaining an extra pair of hands, fresh perspectives, and invaluable insights that can benefit your team. 💼 Internships aren't a drain. Flip the narrative and embrace them. With summer internships right around the corner, here are three actionable tips that have proven effective in maximizing the impact of interns on my team: 1. Invest in their onboarding. They're only with you for a short period and must ramp up quickly. Remember this and arm them with what they need to know to do their job well from day one. 2. Set clear expectations. This is often their first time in a professional setting for many interns. What do you expect them to deliver? What are their KPIs? Online hours? Depending on their level, give them a mix of rote tasks and a project. The project is a great resume-building opportunity for them! 3. Spend time with them. Get to know them and you'll be surprised at how much you'll learn and bonus, you'll both be building your network. I've gone on to hire many interns for full time roles!
