Inside Internships
Many recent graduates work as interns as they begin to establish their careers. Career Edge Organization is a national not-for-profit service provider, established in 1996, that arranges paid internships by partnering with leading Canadian host employers, including major banks, telecommunications and financial firms, and public-sector employers like local, provincial, and territorial governments. The first online job board in Canada (www.careeredge.ca,), Career Edge Organization, to date, has recorded over 12,000 internships and continues to offer paid internships through the Career Edge, Ability Edge, and Career Bridge paid internship programs.
The Career Edge program provides meaningful entry-level work experience for recent Canadian graduates. It is designed to help recent graduates launch careers in their chosen field. For employers, Career Edge offers access to a diverse, qualified talent pool via cost-effective 4- to 12-month paid internships that do not affect headcount. It is also a robust option for onboarding recent graduates. For a very reasonable stipend, these interns can help with special projects, add diversity to company operations, and cover temporary staffing shortages. Interns gain practical work experience, develop employability skills such as teamwork and critical thinking, benefit from networking, and receive a stipend.
Kim Burgess, a business analyst at Bell Systems & Technology, benefited tremendously from Career Edge. She says, "After taking a year off work to return to school, re-entering the workforce was difficult. Career Edge gave me the opportunity I needed to apply my new skill set and learn within a working environment. Your internship is what you make of it and Career Edge will provide exactly what you need to excel!"
