U-Sourcing: University Sourcing Program

Our U-Sourcing program is a structured program that allows our clients to build a virtual farm-club of talent using university students. U-Sourcing uses the same basic principles as intern or co-op programs but our program focuses on retention through constant employment and a comprehensive, multi-year curriculum. Students that participate in the program receive thorough training and be part of live projects for the company. The student employee is continuously evaluated throughout the program so that only the best candidates will be considered for full-time employment.

Our team uses our extensive operations experience to help our clients develop their university relations plan, U-Sourcing program management model, retention benefit plans, evaluation criteria, and comprehensive curriculum. We work with our clients from strategy development until the program is launched and operational to assure the program is a success.
