READY TO FIND YOUR NEXT
GREAT HIRE?
CILI can be an invaluable partner in your efforts to find highly qualified and diversified interns who are so much more than your average intern. In exchange for a placement fee, CILI handles candidate sourcing while your organization will interview, select, and manage interns as you normally would.
Employer hosts are responsible for providing an 8-to-12-week summer internship that pays at least $15/hr, in an environment that is both challenging and nurturing, with a commitment to and capacity for developing talent.
Our Fellows have completed paid internships at more than 20 different Louisiana employers across a variety of industries, with many then receiving internship extension or full-time job offers.
