We've all heard "the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again," yet so many recruiting organizations that are stretched for time and resources are hesitant to try something new. We heard you and are excited to introduce real Micro-Internship users to discuss some of the most common objections and "myths" about this new approach to experiential recruiting.
During this panel discussion, we'll discuss common concerns from recruiters about how, why, and where Micro-Internships fit into the early-career talent pipeline.
