Employers have a variety of ways to engage with colleges and universities to find student talent, as discussed in the podcast episode. One traditional method is through career fairs, where employers can interact with students and showcase their opportunities. Information sessions provide a platform for employers to talk about their organization, available positions, and how students can apply. Mock interviews and resume critiques offer valuable hands-on experience for students, helping them prepare for the job application process.
One of the key trends discussed in the podcast episode is the rise of micro-internships. These micro-internships are project-based and short-term opportunities for students to gain valuable experience while allowing organizations to assess students without a long-term commitment. The concept of micro-internships has gained traction, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has highlighted the need for flexible and remote work arrangements.
According to Don Snyder from the College of William & Mary, micro-internships typically last for a shorter duration, ranging from three to five weeks. These opportunities are skill-based, focusing on specific projects or tasks that organizations need to be completed within a short timeframe. Importantly, micro-internships are paid, providing students with a chance to contribute to real-world projects while earning compensation for their work.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
