    If it hadn't been for Adopt an Intern we would have spent a great deal of time and money on recruitment and, through using a less targeted approach, would have been unlikely to find such strong candidates.

    Adopt an Intern has allowed me to build the relevant experience and I now have a wide range of professional experience. This internship was an opportunity for me to be stretched, but also to rise to the occasion. Most importantly, I now know what to expect from the world of work and feel confident in conversing with other professionals.
