Paid Internships Key to Job-Search Success for New College Grads
Paid internships correlate to job-search success, according to
a new study conducted by the National Association of Colleges and
Employers (NACE).
Class of 2011 graduates who took part in a paid internship were more
likely to get a job offer, have a job in hand by the time they
graduated, and receive a higher starting salary offer than their peers
who undertook an unpaid internship or no internship at all, according to
results of NACE’s 2011 Student Survey.
