4imprint® presents Latest Blue Paper® and podcast

OSHKOSH, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This month’s Blue Paper and podcast from promotional products retailer 4imprint entitled, The Ideal Internship, offers helpful ideas about facilitating a productive internship experience for both first-time supervisors and veteran business managers alike.

“Internships can be extremely beneficial for both interns and employers in terms of education, experience and project work”

Everyone has started out in business one way or another, but some have had the opportunity to learn early on through an internship experience. An internship is oftentimes the first time an individual is being exposed to the work place and expected to actively participate in it, too. How much the intern is able to learn throughout the internship experience is often contingent on an engaging supervisor to oversee their progress on specific projects and offer advice from beginning to end.

“Internships can be extremely beneficial for both interns and employers in terms of education, experience and project work,” explains Greg Ebel, vice president of sales and marketing for 4imprint. “Internships can be a defining professional experience for a young person and this Blue Paper helps point out ways to make sure that experience is a positive one for everyone involved.”

How to create an internship, how to solicit and select an appropriate candidate and tips for how to ensure they stay busy are just a few of the topics covered in this Blue Paper and podcast. Below is a list of other questions you can gain insight from in this Blue Paper and Podcast:

• Paid or unpaid?
