"I think it's a win-win. When I work with the interns at Central Coast College, it gives me the opportunity to have a six week on the job interview. It gives them the opportunity to see if my particular specialty interests them. And I think in the end we both win...either there's a job offer made or the employees take the experience and have something to put on their resume."
