Talent Management

What We Do

Some businesses excel at hiring top university talent but struggle to convert interns into full-time employees or returning interns. This often happens because companies fail to maximize the intern program experience—the key to retaining the talent you've worked so hard to recruit.

You’ve done the heavy lifting to bring these students in—now it’s time to convince them to stay.

At Intern Sherpa, we design internship experiences that boost intern performance, manager/mentor satisfaction, and full-time conversion rates—ensuring your interns feel engaged, valued, and eager to return.

Our Process

We transform your internship program into a 12-week job interview, helping you identify top performers for full-time roles or return internships.

How We Help:

Increase intern-to-full-time conversion by aligning intern hiring with new grad hiring needs.
Improve offer acceptance rates by enhancing the intern experience and fostering strong relationships.
Create a structured, engaging internship program that delivers measurable results.

These are attainable goals with high-impact returns—and we’d be honored to show you how it’s done.
