Report prepared by Barbara Hewitt, Senior Associate Director, Career Services, University of Pennsylvania, March 2017 - 1 - General Observations on Internship Recruiting for Summer 2016 Students seeking internships for the Summer of 2016 experienced a changing landscape for internship recruiting, particularly in financial services, as many firms decided to begin their recruiting earlier than in previous years and to conduct interviews outside of the traditional on-campus recruiting process. Therefore, we saw a much larger percentage of juniors report that they obtained their internships before the semester break (42.5% for Summer 2016 as opposed to 20.7% for Summer 2015) and a much lower percentage reporting that they obtained their internship through the on-campus recruiting process (33.9% in 2016 as opposed to 55.1% in 2015). It will be interesting to see if these numbers rebound for Summer 2017, as Penn Career Services opened up on- campus recruiting for internships in October this year as opposed to the previous start dates in February.
