D3 Solutions Offers Internships, Hires Recent Graduates

Portland, OR, May 29, 2015 (Newswire.com) - As May rapidly approaches, the leaders at D3 Solutions are preparing to add to their team of dynamic performers. Attracting motivated candidates right out of college is a priority for Cassie, the firm’s director of operations. As she explained, “New graduates offer so many benefits to a company. They’re anxious to make a name for themselves, so they’re open to learning new skills and putting them to use right away. Their enthusiasm really spreads.”

There are also some more tangible effects of hiring college graduates, such as the fact that they are able to work longer hours with fewer distractions. They also have a high level of comfort with new technology. As the director put it, “New graduates bring an intuitive ability to work with emerging tech devices and applications. I have the utmost confidence that new grads can come into our company and quickly learn all of our systems and processes.”

College graduates are also used to learning and applying new knowledge, which comes in very handy when adapting to a new company. They have the ability to absorb training at a higher rate than older members of a team.

D3 Solutions’ Director Highlights Benefits of Serving an Internship

In addition to their efforts to attract top graduates, Cassie and the rest of the D3 Solutions leadership team also offer internships to college students. “Many of the same benefits of adding college graduates apply to having an internship program,” added the director. “We partner with local community colleges and universities to give motivated students a feel for a professional environment and a good start for their networking pursuits.”

Students who serve internships with D3 Solutions gain confidence by performing important tasks in a supportive work environment. They also get the chance to prove themselves as being worthy of a full-time job after graduation. As Cassie stated, “I think it’s fair to look at an internship as an extended job interview. While the student might be giving the business and our company a kind of trial run, we’re doing the same for them.”

Internships also provide students with a good selection of helpful professional contacts. “Even if they don’t pursue a full-time position with us, the contacts that students make when they serve as interns can pay off down the line,” Cassie concluded. “It’s a great way for them to get a head start in making connections and gaining references.”
