Testimonials
The following are testimonials from universities that have participated in past Intern Bridge Internship Studies:
"Intern Bridge provides an invaluable service to Career Centers- especially those that are understaffed. As college administrators concerned with professional development and outcomes assessment, we are constantly required to provide data and profiles of our students and their needs. Intern Bridge understands this and plans their survey accordingly."
Sophia Demetriou
Director, Career Services
City College of New York
"The internship study provided fantastic data about our own institution and - more importantly - our comparison to other national institutions. We have used the data in the past in conversations with alumni and employers, and have fine-tuned our internal decision-making. In an age when assessment in higher education is becoming increasingly important - both for the measurement of our own successes and as a reporting tool to the rest of the University - participating in this study is a no-brainer!"
Rusmir Music
Assistant Director of Experiential Programs, Hiatt Career Center
Brandeis University
"The internship study makes it very easy for colleges and universities to gather information from their students. The results offered useful insights on our student population and how they compared to other institutions."
Penny Loretto
Assistant Director
Skidmore College
"Our required internship program is new and we are a small college. Participating in the survey added credibility to our degree requirement, and the College received welcomed visibility."
Joan Milnes
Director of Internships & Career Services
Montessart College of Art
"The information helped us to understand that we need to be sure our students further understand and use our services. It will allow Career Development to continue to pursue recognition of the importance of internships for our students competing with students from other schools."
Susan Perry
Assistant Director / Internship Coordinator
Randolph College
"The survey provided interesting information that will be used by our career center and senior administration. The implementation was easy and the reports are very user friendly."
Julia Overton-Healy
Director, Career Center
Mansfield University of Pennsylvania
"The study provided information that our department would probably not have collected or otherwise thought of asking."
Herb Scheftel
Manager, Career Fairs, Internship/Co op and Workstudy Programs
Polytechnic University
"I believe that the information gained from The Internship Study has helped us understand and meet our students' internship needs more effectively."
Jason Whitney
Career Advisor / Internship Coordinator
University of New Hampshire
"The Internship Study provided our institution with beneficial information that we simply would not have had the time or the resources to complete on our own."
Giselle Cartier
Assistant Director, Career Services
Westfield State College
"The Internship Study provided a tremendous opportunity to gain valuable insight from 'real' students doing (or not doing) 'real' internships. Where else can you gain insight into over 12,000 students and compare them to your own College with no cost and minimal effort? Great job."
Rich Davino
Director of Employer Relations
Framingham State College
"The Internship Study provided us with both quantitative and qualitative information on our students opinions of internships. We would not have been able to gather this information on our own."
Elisa Seeherman
Director of Career Services
The University of the Arts
"The Internship Study is thorough and has the advantage of providing information given by YOUR students--in many ways more useful than composite results from students at a variety of--often very dissimilar--institutions."
Susan Walker
Associate Director
Middlebury College
"The questionnaire implementation process was very simple and I felt no pressure to 'push' our students to respond."
Darwin Kysor
Director of Career Services
Juniata College
"We are glad that we participated in the Internship Study. I was surprised at how many of our students completed the survey. The incentives that Intern Bridge offers really worked! The information collected is extremely useful, and we are now better informed as to what our students expect and desire from employers. This information will most certainly help us improve our Internship Program."
Angela Cherubini
Director of Career Counseling
Sarah Lawrence College
