Plan Now for Summer ’24 Employment Needs

College students are starting to head back to campus, which means underclassmen are starting to explore their options for summer internships and seniors are already weighing their offers for full-time employment for June 2024.  Now is the time to start the conversation and the MCAA GreatFutures Job Board is the perfect place to start!

New Resources Will Assist with Hiring & Managing Interns

The MCAA Career Development Committee recently compiled four resources to assist companies with the internship hiring and management process.  Internship Best Practices is a quick read (1 page) and walks employers through the hiring process in a timeline format.

Once Your Intern Is Hired, Submit a Part 1 JRGF Internship Grant Application

Once you’ve successfully hired your intern, head over to the JRGF Internship Grant page to submit at Part 1 application for a $1,000 grant for 1 intern or $2,000 grant for 2 or more interns.  These grants are available anytime throughout the year (summer interns and/or school year interns).

If You Hire an Intern Full Time, Be Sure to Complete a Part 2 JRGF Internship Grant Application 

Did you recently hire one of your interns full-time?  If they were previously on a Part 1 list, submit a Part 2 application for a $500 gift card for your new hire.
