Work experience is the best teacher. How can I attract graduates when I demand they get practical work experience before moving into supervisory and lead engineer positions?
The best place to start is by hiring students for summer employment, while they are in college. Starting after the first year of college, students don’t expect to be in management. They look for and welcome any electrical engineering employment. Co-op and summer intern positions give employers and employees a chance to learn together and learn about one another. Over 90% of our graduates have a co-op or intern experience before graduation.
