The Struggles of Finding the Right Intern

Hiring interns seems simple—post a job, receive applications, and select the best candidate. But in reality, it’s a time-consuming and uncertain process. The struggle to find truly skilled interns can slow down projects and impact business growth.

Common Hiring Challenges Faced by Employers

1. The Volume vs. Quality Dilemma

Employers receive hundreds of applications, but only a handful meet their requirements. Sorting through irrelevant resumes wastes valuable time.

2. Lack of Pre-Vetted Talent

Hiring an intern through regular channels can cost up to $500-$1000 per intern in recruitment efforts, screening, and time spent.

3. The Time-Consuming Screening Process

From reviewing applications to conducting interviews, the process can take weeks, if not months. Small businesses often don’t have dedicated HR teams, making it even harder.

4. High Dropout Rates

Many interns accept offers but later drop out due to a lack of commitment or better opportunities. This disrupts projects and leads to hiring delays.
