Amber Frankhuizen is the founder and CEO of AFMKTG. She started my business in 2018 and has become known as the "intern whisperer" because of her focus on mentorship and education for young professionals. She believes that college is broken because a lot of theory is taught but not many practical skills. Amber decided to start offering internships as a way to give back and also build her business's credibility. She believes that offering internships have helped her tenfold as a business owner.

 

"The biggest key who should be looking at hiring interns is, do you have the systems in place for the business to run or for them to get trained easily? And do you have the time to invest in them? Because that's what this is about."

 

Amber has developed a program for other business owners to set up their own internship programs. Her mission is to help everyone get the mentorship they want while developing the next generation of college students and recent grads.

 

In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. How to build a successful internship program 2. How to make sure that interns are getting the most out of their experience 3. How to find the right candidates for an internship program
