How was your Very First Internship?

Woah... it's been a busy semester

[another project]
I've been writing a really big paper about why students, whose first-time experience with an internship/co-op at a company related to their area of study (mostly engineering), may have an awkward or unpleasant recollection of their first co-op/intern placement. Through my experience, I attribute this to that many hiring managers may not know that first-year interns/co-ops need to be managed a little differently. I'm focusing on the pre-planning & communication aspects of hiring a student for a part-time placement. The paper is a recommendation to hiring mangers:

"A Hiring Manager’s Guide Toward the Planning & Utilization of a First-Year NU-MIE Co-op Student."

I would really appreciate it if you would answer the poll (honestly) so I may use this statistic in my report.


Thanks!
