LULAC Introduces Internship Alliance Program Powered by Internships.com

Giving Students Every Tool They Need to Stand Out and Get Hired
WASHINGTON & LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
The League of United Latin American Citizens, the largest and oldest Latino
civil rights and advocacy group in the United States, and Internships.com of Los
Angeles today announced a partnership building a bridge between students and
businesses to ensure that Latino young adults are getting the hired education
and access they need for next generation jobs.

"Latino young adults are in a position to contribute to America`s economy in a
very significant way, and with this partnership we are making sure that students
have access to the training and opportunities that will help them succeed," said
LULAC National President Rosa Rosales. "This partnership will bring together
students who want internships and business leaders from the community who know
how important it is to give students the opportunity for experiential learning."

Internships.com provides a robust toolkit of internship-specific resources that
will help students every step of the way as they begin the process of preparing
for and searching for an internship; the site even has tips for what a student
can expect on the job. Internships.com`s career counselors have created tools
like the Internship Predictor, QuickBuild Resume, and LULAC Intern Certification
Program to give students every advantage they need when it comes to internships.

"LULAC has been opening the door to opportunities for Latinos for more than 80
years, and now we are making sure the platform is in place for businesses and
students to connect in a way that will have a really big impact on the workforce
of tomorrow," said Robin Richards, CEO of Internships.com. "Together with LULAC
we are democratizing the opportunity for all students to get their foot in the
door to the career world."

In addition to the many resources for students, Internships.com also has a
groundbreaking turnkey employer toolkit. Historically, one of the roadblocks to
implementing or expanding an internship program has been the lack of
understanding on the part of companies about how to find quality interns and
what goes into making a great internship experience for both the student and the
company. Internships.com`s employer toolkit has articles, videos, and blogs
created by experts to educate employers on how to implement a top-notch program.

"I really like that Internships.com was built specifically for internships, and
everything on the site is focused on success for students and businesses with
internship programs," said Miguel J. Zazueta, a Founding Intern of LULAC and
Internships.com. "For example, the interview tips are specific for internships,
and content is presented in a way that appeals to me as a student."

As LULAC`s official internship partner, Internships.com will work closely with
LULAC to ensure that students get the experience that will help them stand out
and be hired as interns by organizations with a vested interest in the workforce
of tomorrow.
