Equipping Future Leaders
How Webco Industries Partnered with CDP to Empower Interns
About the Client
Webco Industries, a leader in the manufacturing of high-quality metal tubing, is committed to developing the next generation of industry professionals. Recognizing that an internship is more than just work experience—it’s a launchpad for future careers—Webco partnered with Career Development Partners (CDP) to equip their interns with essential career development tools. This initiative reinforced Webco’s dedication to nurturing talent while enhancing its reputation as a top-tier employer.
Challenge
While Webco’s internship program provided valuable hands-on experience, company leadership sought to expand its impact by offering career readiness support. They wanted interns to leave with more than technical skills—they aimed for interns to become confident job candidates, professional brand ambassadors, and future leaders.
Solution
Webco Industries engaged Career Development Partners (CDP) to implement a customized career development program tailored specifically for interns. Key services included:
- Interview Preparation: CDP coaches conducted mock interviews and provided personalized feedback to sharpen interviewing skills.
- LinkedIn Profile Optimization: Interns received expert guidance on building professional LinkedIn profiles that showcased their skills and achievements.
- Resume Development: Each intern worked with CDP specialists to craft dynamic, results-driven resumes that highlighted their experiences and industry-specific competencies.
- Professional Branding and Networking: Interns learned how to represent themselves and Webco professionally, becoming effective brand ambassadors in the workplace and beyond.
Results
The results were transformative for both interns and the company.
Conclusion
The partnership between Webco Industries and Career Development Partners demonstrates the power of investing in talent development. By equipping interns with essential career readiness skills, Webco not only prepared the next generation of industry professionals but also strengthened its position as an employer of choice. This initiative reflects Webco’s unwavering commitment to nurturing talent, fostering leadership, and building a brighter future for the manufacturing industry.
Participant Quote:
The interview section and LinkedIn sections were by far the most helpful. I’ve never had anyone specifically go through the details of the job application process so it was very helpful to get a bunch of info at once.
