Many firms, nervous about the future, are reluctant to hire permanent staff until they have tested them. Intern-recruitment agencies are popping up to help. Inspiring Interns, a London firm, boasts that it can provide competent interns within three days. It processes 300 applicants a day, and claims that 65% of the interns it has placed have been hired.随着失业潮在富裕国家蔓延，越来越多的年轻人正在寻找实习机会。很多对前景感到忧虑的公司，不愿意雇佣长期职员，除非那人已经是经过考验。实习招聘代理公司应运而生，为此事助力。Inspiring Interns这家位于伦敦的公司，自夸它可以在三天内提供能胜任岗位的实习生。它每天要处理300个求职申请，并声称由它安排的实习生中65%已被雇佣。Many intern candidates have no previous job experience and only a vague notion of what work involves. Inspiring Interns screens them with personality tests, coaches them on interview technique and urges them to make a video-clip curriculum vitae. Many internships are unpaid; the firm charges employers ￡500 ($779) a month for each intern plus 10% of the starting salary if an intern is hired permanently. Ben Rosen, who founded Inspiring Interns with ￡20,000, says it grossed around ￡1m last year.很多实习应聘者没有工作经验，对于工作只有一个模糊的概念。Inspiring Interns通过个性测试对应聘者进行筛选，对他们的面试技巧进行指导，并督促他们制作一个视频简历。大量的实习工作是没有工资的，因此这家公司按照每个实习生每月500英镑（779美元）向雇主收取费用，如果实习生被雇为长期职员，另外加收起薪的10%。本?罗斯以2万英镑创立了Inspiring Interns，他说公司去年税前收入约为100万英镑。Other intern agencies are more specialised.
