Excited for the session, from Philadelphia PA :) 00:15:00 Jena Patrick: Hello from Illinois! 00:15:59 Sean Lynott: Wow, 55 in Surrey today 00:17:08 Caitlin Gangi: my old colleagues at Oliver Wyman (management consulting) is also cancelling their internship but transitioning all offers to full time offers 00:18:08 Sean Lynott: At T-Mobile we consolidated our two intern groups and will launch on 6/17. Plan is still to be on location but we're building out a virtual program just in case 00:18:08 Trinity Webb: We are moving forward with 100% virtual as well. 00:19:08 Caitlin Gangi: Cigna is moving completely virtual for a little over 300 interns 00:20:00 Kathleen Schaum: At KPMG US, we have around 2,300 summer interns. We're moving them to a shortened virtual program that was accompanied by a full-time offer 00:20:54 Tim Krenz: @Kathleen - Yes, I've seen some employers shorten the experience. We decided to keep the same length. 00:21:35 Sean Lynott: We have 210 interns on the books at T-Mobile this summer 00:21:38 Sonya McDonald: We are moving to completely virtual - 30 interns, so smaller than most, but vital. 10 weeks - 4 day work weeks versus 5. 00:22:19 Trinity Webb: Anybody had schools dictate the type of internship? One school is requiring their students perform internship 100% virtual for health and safety reasons of their students. 00:22:52 Nicholas LeVan: We shortened to 7 weeks, delaying our start by 3 weeks, went full virtual and cancelled any non-filled roles, at the time of the decision. 00:22:57 Sean Lynott: Not on our end, but I was following a NACE thread 00:23:06 Caitlin Frank: That's interesting, do you mind sharing which University that was? 00:23:15 Kathleen Schaum: @Trinity, I have seen some schools do what you say- Tell their students they can't get credit unless the internship is virtual 00:23:20 Caitlin Gangi: i handle our MBA interns personally - my schools have not asked us to that and i have not heard that from my colleagues in the UGrad space 00:23:21 Lisa Schmidt: We will have 120 tech interns all virtual in NJ, GA and VA. 00:23:25 Tim Krenz: @Trinity - we have not heard any specific requirements from our target schools. 00:23:45 Lisa Schmidt: Have not had that mandate from schools either 00:24:28 Lisa Schmidt: We shortened our internship as well from 10 weeks to 6 weeks 00:24:32 Melissa Dondzila: I have also seen schools only allow their students to move forward with a virtual internship 00:24:53 Dawn Ridz: @Tim Krenz - as a global program, how have you managed International Students that wanted to return to their home country to fulfill their internship? 00:25:00 Rosanna Chowdhury: If anyone is interested in hiring interns in the fields of planning, sustainability and business, ecology, conservation, or anything related to environmental studies, please feel free to contact me rosannan@yorku.ca. I work with York University in Toronto, Canada 00:25:13 Melissa Dondzila: Quicken Loans has moved forward with an all-virtual program for around 500 interns. We shortened it to about 8 weeks as well. 00:26:02 Sonya McDonald: Are companies providing laptops, or using VPN from personal devices? 00:26:18 Sean Lynott: T-Mobile will provide laptops with VPN access 00:26:21 Christine Chamberland: Travelers has around 400 interns across the country and they will be starting virtually 00:26:41 Kathleen Schaum: @Sonya, we are working on this right now. Finding it's hard to secure laptops for 2300 interns when our tech team is all working remotely but still trying to make that happen. 00:26:42 Kristin Junia: Siemens provides laptops with VPN access 00:27:18 KATE SPARANO: ADP is trying to provide virtual desktop on intern's personal devices... working through this with our tech team 00:27:19 Melissa Dondzila: QL is still finalizing our options, but likely will be providing laptops (and additional equipment needed) 00:27:29 Sean Lynott: @Kathleen: same on our end although much small group (210). We're working on a way to remotely provision all the devices after they're mailed out 00:27:46 Trinity Webb: @sonya mcdonald we are using VPN and if there is a need, provide an all-in-one machine (exceptions only). 00:28:12 Sonya McDonald: Thank you, everyone! 00:28:13 Kathleen Schaum: @Sean same here...but the team is concerned about capability of doing the virtual image remotely for that many people that all start the same day! 00:28:51 Tim Krenz: @Dawn - great question. That has come up largely in other regions. We're working with our immigration and global mobility team to find a solution to uphold our commitment to our offers (including delaying start dates as a last result) 00:28:57 Trinity Webb: @Caitlin Frank - U of Colorado Denver 00:29:08 Caitlin Frank: Thanks @Trinity! 00:29:30 Meirav Abramovitz: We are seeing more companies use our accommodations case management system (which has an inventory management piece) to deploy and manage technologies to manage the migration to a remote workforce quickly and effectively! 00:30:02 Trinity Webb: Regarding int'l interns, consider location internship was to occur and check with payroll for any issues around payroll taxes, etc. We have interns in other states and since virtual, working from states other than intended location. 00:30:09 Trinity Webb: also domestic interns 00:30:30 Sean Lynott: @trinity we're also looking into it. Might have to send out new offer letters 00:31:19 Trinity Webb: @Sean Lynott, we are just making sure when we hire in system, put correct work location. Lots of changes and oversight since nothing gets missed. 00:31:29 Katie Schwartz: I'd like to hear about the virtual talent show Micah 00:32:28 Sean Lynott: Great call out Graham! 00:33:08 Nicole Streu: We are moving to a fully virtual intern program at Sandia National Labs. We had to rescind around 150 offers who could not do meaningful work remotely. We are proceeding with approximately 400 virtually. We will provide laptops for security reasons. 00:33:52 Kathleen Schaum: I see Mary Scott is on. We used the information she provided on the top factors students want in an internship and are using those as our "pillars" as we design a reimagined virtual internship program. Thanks Mary! 00:33:57 F E: If you are interested in hiring interns in the fields of :Accounting, Business & Society, Communication Studies, economics, Finance, Human Resource Management, Informational Technology, Management, Marketing, and Public Administrative , please feel free to email me at fehsani@yorku.ca. York University , Toronto , Canada 00:33:58 Elizabeth Melenciano: yes - details on a virtual talent show please 00:34:27 Mariama Jawara: Have companies decided what platforms they would be using to accommodate all interns? Also how would they assure interns have all the equipment and support they need to be successful during this new Internship experience 00:34:39 KATE SPARANO: Can we create a LinkenIn group or email chain to stay connected on decisions and what we are all doing with our interns? 00:34:49 Trinity Webb: Would love that idea 00:34:55 Jenn Dey: great idea! 00:35:05 Caitlin Frank: I would love to join that! 00:35:10 Kathleen Schaum: @Mariarma, we are using a variety of platforms- Brazen, MS Teams, Skype and Webcast depending on the specific activity 00:35:24 Rosanna Chowdhury: LinkedIn group sounds like great idea 00:35:29 Sean Lynott: T-Mobile is using: Slack, Teams, Webex, SharePoint, etc. 00:35:57 Nicole Ramirez: an email chain or LI group sounds great! I've been wondering how to do something like that. Would love to be a part of it 00:36:10 Trinity Webb: @Mariarma we are utilizing WebEx, Skype and lots of resources to ensure success from day one. Having call with all interns to go over best practices and preparing them fully for virtual internship. All using their own equipment, VPN/Citirx Remote desktops 00:36:11 KATE SPARANO: I don't mind starting a LinkedIn Group! :) Please email me and/or add me on LinkedIn that you'd like to join the group - Kate.Sparano@adp.com Or Kate Malicki Sparano, Lead Campus Recruiter @ ADP on LinkedIn 00:36:54 Sean Lynott: Just sent you a LinkedIn invite Kate :0) 00:37:15 Caitlin Frank: Same here! Thanks @Kate! 00:37:45 Trinity Webb: Same here 00:38:14 Maryann Kleynendorst: https://app.riipen.com/sign-up?type=employer&request_token=12f8fc1e-f7b7-46e1-9992-835df85cf07e 00:38:20 Sabrina Scott: Hi @Caitlin Frank! I hope you're well!! 00:38:30 F E: sending a linkedin invite, thanks 00:38:49 Mariama Jawara: Thank you 00:39:05 Margaret Zuhlke: UC San Diego will have it's first cohort of students graduating with an undergraduate degree in Data Science this Spring. We have about 80 graduates seeking full time hire and about 800 continuing students seeking internships. If you are interested in connecting with our talent, please email me at mzuhlke@ucsd.edu! 00:39:33 Anthony Young-Wiseman: If anyone is looking for a way to virtually connect with qualified candidates to build and retain your current talent pipeline, Email me at awiseman@symplicity.com or mabramovitz@symplicity.com. We have a network of 4.5 million students looking for internship, co-op, and entry level positions right now. 00:39:35 KATE SPARANO: @Margaret, ADP does not, but we do hire in Pasadena through the year so I'd love to connect you with someone from my team! 00:39:51 Margaret Zuhlke: Wonderful! Looking forward to hearing from you :) 00:40:28 Tara Coulter: We have had some employers cancel summer co-op positions due to uncertainty & not sure how to navigate onboarding remotely. Was there a key point that made you decide to proceed with your intern programs? 00:40:29 Melissa Dondzila: Love the stipend idea to combat some of those costs! 00:40:32 Sean Lynott: @Tim, same here! We're building guides for hiring managers and interns 00:41:59 Meirav Abramovitz: Couldn’t agree more! I ran a virtual internship program for years, and having opportunities for the interns to still connect to the culture of the firm, and to each other, is the most important aspect. We did a week-long on-boarding program, including a book club on a book we sent to all, daily lunch and learns from the exec team to meet everyone, a virtual scavenger hunt, and the like! 00:42:06 Jenni Salisbury: @Tara, we decided to keep ours because doing something is better than nothing for evaluating for our fall 2021 FT hires. Otherwise we'd be hiring people cold. 00:42:37 Caitlin Frank: I'd love to learn more about the virtual scavenger hunt!! @Meirav 00:42:56 Trinity Webb: @Tara Coulter - our first formal program this year, considerations were brand and upholding our values, committment to partner schools, etc. Our company has made the public announcement we will not lay off any of our 6k employees due to affects of COVID. so wanted to be in line with our interns in that promise. 00:42:59 Tara Coulter: @Jenni - I agree 00:44:00 Jill Wellman: Ditto @Caitlin Frank & @Meriav!! 00:45:06 Meirav Abramovitz: @Caitlin - it was awesome! We came up with a list of approximately 100 items, with varying degrees of difficulty. Some were business-related, others related to individuals at the organization. Some they could find by reading the website, others they’d have to go to employees to find out. It was a great way for them to introduce themselves to different people in the organization and to find out information. Huge hit! 00:45:07 Tara Coulter: @Trinity - that is wonderful. We have a large co-op program at UVic and in Engineering & Comp Sci are down 50% in placements this summer 00:45:34 Trinity Webb: @Meirav @Caitlin - we are going to host virtual networking hours with leaders, etc. We have a full series of development lunch and learns with leaders, help with developing and presenting their projects and learning aobut different parts of the business. 00:46:54 Meirav Abramovitz: So important, @Trinity! I would also add that it’s a great opportunity to tap newer hires to the organization and get them involved. They’ll be excited to be a part of it (helps with loyalty and retention, especially at a time like this), to spread out the burden! 00:47:14 Caitlin Frank: That is fantastic!! Thank you @Meirav @Trinity! 00:47:52 Jenni Salisbury: @meirav what a cool idea! definitely going to borrow that! 00:48:02 Trinity Webb: @Caitlin Frank - We have mentors for every intern and pushed for those with fewer than 5 years experience that they can connect with. 00:48:10 Caitlin Frank: Hi @Sabrina!!!! Hope you are doing well :) :) 00:48:38 Caitlin Frank: @Trinity - were your mentors in the same department as the interns? 00:48:46 Meirav Abramovitz: all yours, @Jenni! Happy to share any other ideas for anyone interested: mabramovitz@symplicity.com 00:49:22 Meirav Abramovitz: My pleasure, @Caitlin! Feel free to email me if you want to connect: mabramovitz@symplicity.com 00:49:26 Trinity Webb: @ Caitlin Frank - Yes, but they'll also have less formal contacts in the business, we are really pushing them to meet as many as possible with the help of their mentor and manager. 00:49:38 Caitlin Frank: Makes sense! Thanks. 00:51:32 Tim Krenz: Highly recommend a training for managers AND interns on how to best use your company's collaboration platform (Slack Chat, Microsoft Teams, etc.) Even more important working virtually. 00:52:12 Caitlin Frank: Love that @Tim Krenz! 00:52:14 Sean Lynott: @Tim: totally agree! 00:53:24 Tara Coulter: It would be great to regroup at the end of the summer to see how the panelists' remote summer internship program went & to see if this will change the way you offer internship programs moving forward. 00:53:28 Jess Anderson: Would love any links/reading on how to manage Gen Z :) 00:54:08 Emily Hall: @Jess https://yello.co/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/2019-Recruiting-Study-FINAL.pdf 00:54:19 Sonya McDonald: That was me! Investment Management Company 00:54:26 Sonya McDonald: The 4 vs 5 days 00:54:47 Jess Anderson: @emily thank you! 00:55:41 Rosanna Chowdhury: any advice on how to approach employers to consider remote internships? 00:57:16 Mariama Jawara: Any advice on how interns can network and get to know each other? 00:57:42 Sean Lynott: We'll be using surveys throughout the program for interns and hiring managers 00:57:51 Judy Thompson: @Tim - great advice. @Tara - yes I would love to see lessons learned. And how this is changing how we do things 00:57:56 Sonya McDonald: @Rosanna, I would encourage them to think of why they have a program in the first place. If it is for a pipeline, they can keep the momentum going on building a talent pipeline. If it is to build their brand, this is no better example of how a company is agile and values people above all else. 00:58:19 Trinity Webb: We are also having managers and interns provide weekly (friday afternoon) feedback on their week and their required 1:1 each Friday...helps ensure intern is engaged and manager is actively engaged and mentor as well 00:58:21 Sonya McDonald: Students are saavy as Micah mentioned. If the company has the capacity, it is worth a shot to bring folks on virtuallt. 00:58:46 Kathleen Schaum: @Mariarma, some of our offices are sending out a powerpoint template now for the interns to fill in with interesting facts about themselves. Then we are hosting a Zoom type session with them and share their personal slides 00:58:58 Rosanna Chowdhury: thanks @Sonya 00:59:06 Sonya McDonald: @Trinity we are doing the same with the weekly feedback 00:59:39 Mariama Jawara: @Kathleen, That seems amazing! 00:59:42 Trinity Webb: We are creating an intern book (digital) with interns names, schools, majors, etc and will send out after our call prior to start. Also sending some items like a notebook and mug for them... 00:59:44 Jenni Salisbury: Our interns typically travel 50% of the summer - including an international trip - which isn't going to happen at this point but was a huge sell for our internship. Small chance they'll travel in July domestically but any advise on making sure they're comfortable with the travel? Our FT staff will all be opt-in so I don't want to put undue pressure on our interns if they're not comfortable. 01:00:15 Sez Atamturktur: Thank you for organizing this session. I am the department head of Architectural Engineering. Several companies in the building and construction industry rescinded their internship offers. I have about 60 students looking for a summer internship. Any suggestions on how our students can search for and identify virtual internships would be appreciated. 01:00:19 Trinity Webb: All interns will present final projects to leadership via video. 01:00:28 Mary Scott: Graham - Forgive the plug, but Scott Resource Group is offering employers 'VIX|R: Virtual Expectations versus Reality" that will provide exactly what you just described, and benchmark the findings against a couple of years of normative data I've collected specific to onsite internships. 01:00:33 Seth Frey: BIG FREY Promotional Products has numerous virtual options to drive engagement amongst interns pre-launch & all summer long 01:02:34 Tim Krenz: Would love to connect with everyone after the call. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-krenz-b9851a7a/ 01:03:22 Kathleen Schaum: Likewise- welcome connecting on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathleen-schaum/ 01:03:34 Trinity Webb: @Tim Krenz - me too https://www.linkedin.com/in/trinitywebb 01:04:06 Sez Atamturktur: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sezatamturktur/ 01:04:18 Angelina Isaac: https://www.linkedin.com/in/angelina-isaac-73306a4/ 01:04:59 F E: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fahimeh-ehsani-ma-9376a954/ 01:05:20 Megan Ludwig: https://www.linkedin.com/in/megan-ludwig-4a408212b/ 01:05:21 Tian Wei: we're utilizing mentoring circles 01:05:47 Kristin Junia: @tian wei - how do mentoring circles work? 01:05:58 Melissa Dondzila: Would also love to connect with everyone! https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissadondzila/ 01:05:59 Jenni Salisbury: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennisalisbury/ 01:06:05 Tara Coulter: https://www.linkedin.com/in/taralcoulter/ 01:06:19 Caitlin Frank: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caitlin-frank-b4394054/ 01:06:19 Christine Chamberland: To the individual who mentioned doing a virtual scavenger hunt (I can't see the full name on here) - would you happen to have some examples of items you asked interns to find out about? I think this is an awesome idea and am thinking of it for our group... 01:06:32 Alon Eisenstein: same https://www.linkedin.com/in/aloneisenstein/ 01:06:44 Vanessa Raber: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessaraber/ 01:06:48 Meirav Abramovitz: Yes - email me @Christine mabramovitz@symplicity.com (Meirav) - I’m happy to share! 01:06:51 Jess Anderson: @Christine same here - would love to do this! 01:07:02 Christine Chamberland: Thank you!
