Missouri Intern Connect has recently debuted to give young Missourians more avenues to grow their resumes, acquire skills, and find available internships.
The goal of Missouri Intern Connect is to give young people a connection to employers. These connections will then lead to job opportunities and provide a powerful incentive for workers to stay in Missouri.
“Unfortunately, too many of our talented young workers are choosing to seek employment outside of Missouri. We need to change this trend,” said Daniel P. Mehan, president and CEO of the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry. “Missouri Intern Connect will give our emerging workforce more access to career experience and provide a platform to network with Missouri employers. This will go a long way toward influencing more of these young people to stay in Missouri and help address our state’s workforce needs.”
The service was created by the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry in partnership with the University of Missouri System and with support from the University of Missouri Extension Business Development Program. “We are very excited about the Missouri Chamber’s Missouri Intern Connect program,” UM System President Mun Choi said. “We support the strong emphasis on education and workforce development to fuel economic growth in Missouri.”
The Missouri Department of Higher Education was instrumental in supporting the site and making it a reality.
