This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, we were joined by Kyle Ewing from Google, to talk about how Google shifted their famous and legendary summer internship program to a 100% remote model, in a very short timeframe. Kyle shared the key elements of a successful internship program, how they adapted the program in the time of the pandemic, and gave advice for HR leaders on how to make the most of their internship programs.
