Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate how employers view the international experiences of new and recent college and university students during the hiring process. This study desired to understand what, if any, importance employers place on international experiences, including study abroad trips and international internships. The findings revealed that while employers do not highly value study abroad programs, they do highly value many of the skills and qualities that students gain during study abroad and international experiences.
