Why Smart Companies in Kenya Are Turning Internships Into a Competitive Advantage
In Kenya, 67% of students leave university struggling to find real opportunities, but for forward-looking companies, this challenge is an untapped goldmine. Think about it: today’s interns are not just job seekers—they’re your future employees, future innovators, and even future customers. By opening internship doors, you gain more than extra hands; you gain fresh skills, bold ideas, and youthful energy that can spark creativity across your teams. And the best part? Many of these internships naturally grow into permanent jobs, giving you loyal, trained employees who already understand your culture and processes—no lengthy onboarding required. It’s a true win-win: students get confidence, experience, and a career pathway, while companies shape talent that’s custom-fit to their needs. With MyResource, this becomes effortless.
