Utalent was created to solve a problem that most students have, including us the makers and founders of Utalent. The problem that we have aimed to solve is the job market for students. Internships are hard to get and will take either 3 months or 6 months to complete. Internships and coops are very competitive since the student pool is so large being hundreds of thousands to millions of students applying to these. Also companies could hire someone who does not meet their standards and waste their time and money training and teaching someone who does not retain anything. Students need a way to get hands-on experience in their respective fields, to help them with the increasingly difficult job market. Lastly some students do not have time in their schedule for internships or might want to get experience during the school semester but can not commit 30 hours a week with school work also overlapping so Utalent helps to solve this.
