Current Intern Hosts

Thank You for Serving as a Next Move Site Supervisor!

A recent Gallup poll of college graduates uncovered two overwhelming factors that drive workplace engagement among young professionals entering their careers: first an internship and second a mentor. Thank you for providing both to our interns through your participation in the Next Move.

Your Primary Role as an Internship Site Supervisor

1. Meet with the intern candidate at the beginning of the semester

   • Share an overview of your business/organization
   • Set two site specific goals
   • Set weekly schedule for the semester
   • Set start date

2. Provide guidance to your intern throughout the semester by mentoring them in your field of expertise, as well as reinforcing general professionalism in the workplace.

3. Complete two intern evaluations and discuss opportunities for growth with your intern (your intern will also complete two self-evaluations).

Each intern is assigned a Next Move Internship Coach. If at any point during the internship, you or your intern are struggling in any way, please contact your intern’s Next Move Coach directly so we can provide additional support.

Each intern has a Next Move Coach assigned to support them throughout the internship experience. If you have questions or need support, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
