I recently had to do research for a paper on how a business was able to grow in a very competitive region of the world. It was a pretty big endeavor with multiple research sources and a lot of time spent researching. It was quite the challenge. I had to do research on an industry that I have always thought of as being a one-hit wonder.
I was talking to a colleague about how they had grown so fast in this particular market that they were now a $1-billion company. I asked how it was possible. His response was, “Because you just spent millions of dollars hiring great people and making sure they knew the right stuff to get the job done.
In business, a 1-billion company, that means that for every $1,000,000 the company spends in a year, it’s worth $1,000,000. So the only company that would ever get 1-billion dollars in revenue is the company that’s spending $1,000,000 a year for the best people in the company to do the best work.
The problem with the business review torrent that was at number 1 was that it wasn’t clear how the company spent its money.
With the torrent we were provided a very helpful list of salaries, bonuses, salaries, and bonuses for each employee, indicating how much money was actually spent to hire each employee. This is crucial for the torrent to be accurate because if it was off, then it would not be 100% accurate.
A high-performing company should have a high-performing staff. When we do a high-performing company, the employees do a lot of the grunt work so that the company can focus on the money making. It’s true that if you have just a handful of people, it’s easy to spend too much time on the money making and not enough time on the other things you need to do.
While its more a testament to the hiring process than anything else, a company that hires a lot of interns feels more like a small startup and less like a large corporation. The whole point of hiring employees is to create the right atmosphere in which they can perform at a high level. It may be that the company is a startup, but the atmosphere it creates for employees makes it one.
Companies that are trying to be more than just a small startup usually hire interns, and the more time that company spends hiring interns, the more it looks like a startup. The fact is that if you have a company that is not a small startup, you’re going to have more interns than if you were a startup. Interns are people who don’t know how to work for a startup, or that they’re a startup employee.
Hiring interns is good for the company, and the fact that it seems to be the only way Harvard is getting a lot of employees is a good thing. As for Harvard itself, I hope it continues working with the companies it interns as much as it possibly can.
Sure, Harvard has been hiring interns for a while now, but only for part time. If youre a student or a grad student, youre a Harvard employee, and as such, a Harvard employee is going to have many more internships than you. In fact, Harvard has a policy that says, “Hiring interns is a good thing for Harvard, and its a good thing for Harvard’s companies.” Harvard’s interns are pretty well known.
