The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

During the six-month pilots, Chegg will work directly with participating institutions to give eligible, currently enrolled students access to its Internships.com platform.

“Internships can open the door to a student’s future career, but finding and securing the right opportunity isn’t always easy,” said Alex Young, General Manager of Chegg. “We’ve built our platform with students at its heart, helping to remove barriers and simplify the process. By partnering with colleges and universities, we can help more students discover the right opportunities, develop the skills they need and take meaningful steps from learning to earning.”
“Higher education has a vital role to play in helping students translate their academic experience into successful careers,” said Stuart Mease, Center for Career and Talent Development at Radford University. “But navigating the path from the classroom to employment can be challenging, particularly when students are trying to identify the right opportunities, demonstrate their skills and stand out to employers. This pilot with Chegg gives us an opportunity to help our students build their confidence and take practical steps toward securing internships that can shape their futures.”
Designed to complement existing campus career services, the pilots combine Chegg's technology with institutional outreach and on-campus engagement to help students discover and make use of the platform.
Participating institutions will introduce Internships.com to eligible students through their institutional communication channels and collaborate with Chegg on agreed campus activities. These may include orientation and welcome-week events, student-organization activities, and academic-success or advising programming.
Throughout the pilots, Chegg and each participating institution will meet regularly to gather feedback, assess student engagement and identify ways to improve the experience. These insights will help inform Chegg's approach to future higher education partnerships and further enhancements to the platform.
Students can explore Chegg's internship and career platform at Internships.com and chegg.com.
