Updated: September 6th, 2024

Tired of the traditional internship journey? Meet the intern marketplace—where businesses and interns find the perfect match seamlessly. This business idea simplifies the process of connecting eager interns with companies in need of fresh talent.

An intern marketplace operates as an online hub where businesses list internship opportunities, and candidates showcase their skills and aspirations. Think of it as a specialized job board, but exclusively for internships.

For companies, it’s a hassle-free solution to find qualified candidates without sifting through endless applications. For interns, it’s an easier way to find roles that align with their career goals. Setting up this platform involves creating a robust website, ensuring data privacy, and marketing to both businesses and potential interns.

Starting an intern marketplace offers a rewarding venture with a clear demand, making it a valuable addition to modern workforce solutions. This could be your chance to streamline internship placements and satisfy the needs of both internships seekers and providers.

In this list, you'll find real-world intern marketplace success stories and very profitable examples of starting a intern marketplace that makes money.
