Can you speak to the volume/scale of the internship programs if possible? About how many interns each summer?

+1 to Jasmin on having on checking in with hiring managers to ensure they WANT to host interns given al of the new requirements the pandemic (homeschooling, co-working, etc)

Sounds like a great program Clifton, thanks for sharing!

When are most companies looking to make final format decisions for Summer 2021?

^ good Q!

@Hinal we plan on deciding/communicating end of March/early April!

We hope to make a decision soon for our internship program. Our company has decided that most associates will WFH through end of June, so that is impacting our early decision timeline.

@Hinal - there is a group chat on the whoava app with this specific question. Lots of responses so far

Great point, Lainey! You can find that discussion board in the "Community" feature in Whova. If you have any issues finding this or navigating the platform, please reach out to mx@ivyresearchcouncil.com and someone will assist you.

Thank you @Lainey!!
