With Talent Seed, it's the internship that seeks you out!

Finding an internship can often be a challenging endeavour for students, juggling between studies and exams. Sending out numerous applications can be complicated and tiresome. Fortunately, an innovation is changing this dynamic: Talent Seed, a service facilitating the connection between interns and companies, has partnered with SKEMA Talent & Careers. This platform, co-founded by a student from the Master in Management (PGE) programme at SKEMA Business School, enables students to receive tailored internship offers without applying actively, while companies can directly reach out to candidates.

​​Since its launch a year ago, Talent Se​ed, a website cofounded by Esteban Blactot, MiM student, has attracted over 600 diverse companies and more th​an 4,000 students. The platform reverses the traditional internship search model by promoting a different approach. In this parallel universe, it's not the students who apply, but the companies that search for their candidates.

 

A simplified quest ​​tailored for students

 

Talent Seed invites students to create a detailed profile, visible to recruiters, which includes their personal information, aspirations, and criteria for an ideal internship. Companies can then filter and contact candidates who match their criteria, thus reducing the time students spend on applications.

 

Encouraging students to broaden their search horizons

 

Students tend to limit their searches to certain offers or sectors. Talent Seed broadens their horizons by enabling recruiters to approach them directly. This provides a better understanding of market needs and widens the field of possibilities.
