Did you know P&G's Product Supply internships go back to the 1950s and helped highlight the need for a more coordinated way to work with colleges? In the 1950s, interns typically worked directly with individual teams on the manufacturing floor, learning by doing and contributing alongside the people around them. In 1954, CEO Neil McElroy authorized the development of a system that would enable the company to work more effectively with colleges, helping lay the foundation for a thriving internship program. "P&G's executive development program for college graduates is nationally recognized as one of the most efficient and thorough in American business," said McElroy, in a 1955 publication of the Future for Engineers and Chemists.
