if you wnat credit, you must get it approved by me and then register for
the summer internship course.

*Description of the company including the mission, location, sales and
market coverage. Please include your web URL (if you have it).: *

TopGrading Solutions (www.topgradingsolutions.com) is an MRI Network affiliate, the world's largest management and professional search firm with over 1,100 offices in 36 countries. Our office ranked in the top 25% of our 1,100
global offices in 2007. Our office specializes in Supply Chain within
Consumer Goods.

*Overview of the internship/coop objectives: *

The intern will be heavily involved in internet research, entering
information into our database, and posting information and/or video to
certain websites. At that same time, they will gain valuable insight to
Supply Chain and/or Recruiting as a profession.

*Primary duties and responsibilities: *

* *Most of the duties and responsibilities of the intern will be based
from our computer database. The student will assist the Office Manager
with ongoing database maintenance tasks, helping to make our database
efficient and profitable. He/she will be responsible for use of websites
such as Linkedin (a professional networking site), Indeed and Monster to
search for possible companies and candidates, and heavy use of search
engines like Google, to research missing contact information. Also the
intern will assist in posting information and videos to certain sites,
and possibly have part in redesigning our website, based on the intern's
knowledge of web design. As the intern becomes more comfortable with our
business, and based upon their potential interest, the opportunity will
exist to interact with supply chain professionals throughout the country.

*What will the student learn from this experience? *

The student will get a good understanding of both the Supply Chain and
Consumer Goods industries. This position will help to better the
student's organizational and research skills, and knowledge of Microsoft
Applications. The intern will also get an in-depth look into the
professional world. As we help supply chain professionals take their
careers to the next level, the intern will learn the ins and outs of the

understanding of exactly what employers are looking for. This internship
can be a great stepping stone into their own career.

at any time during the year. They may start at the beginning of a
semester and stop at the end of the semester or possibly stay throughout
the year and even during the summer. This internship offers potential
for growth within our company.

*Primary supervisor: *

Kelly Moura, Office Manager.
