Future Talent Hub - Sara Payne & Rohan Holland Sara Payne & Rohan Holland

As an organisation, why do we offer Internship or Summer Vacation Programs? How do we measure it, what makes it successful, and how closely is it linked to our talent strategy? In this episode, Sara and Rohan draw on their own experience to explore and challenge everything from why pre-graduate programs exist, the objectives, timing and duration of placements and the conversion process to graduate roles. 

When it comes to completely reshaping the Summer Internship Program model because of a global pandemic, what can we learn from the US? Being a seasonal recruitment cycle ahead in the northern hemisphere, Rohan and Sara talk to Sean Treccia from KPMG in the US about how they fully flipped the summer internship program on its head and delivered it 100% remotely, what the pandemic has taught them how they’re planning for the future.

Traditional Summer Vacation Programs have their share of benefits and challenges. Is it time we shook up the traditional model to offer both the students and the organisation something more fresh and innovative? In this episode, we talk to Sarah McGlade @ NAB about how they have done exactly this - and their plans for the future. 

In this episode, we explore the world of remote internships. Specifically, it draws from the need to adapt traditional internships (on company premises) to a remote working model. We talk to Shona Robson @ Cyqiq to see how a growing, innovative technology company has successfully implemented internships on a scale, in a remote environment, and their learnings along the way.
