Supply & Demand
Smart International Relations in Global Internship Programme
Key bottlenecks in Country Partnerships currently and solutions for the same
Regarding feedback from MCs and LCs we found some points that we will give suggestions in how to solve:
1. Missing Knowledge - internally (markets, segments, membership capacity) and externally (students knowledge on that matter, e.g. start-ups)
2. Communication between entities (MC, LC, Companies and EPs);
3. Visa Issues;
4. Supply creation among Tier 2 and 3;
5. Companies always selecting;
6. EP Preparation (lack of).
1. Missing Knowledge - internally (markets, segments, membership capacity) and externally (students knowledge on that matter, e.g. start-ups)
Bottlenecks and solutions
Solutions for this topic are around:
Content, materials;
Check your current available TN forms in the
sub product and TN match rate to
understand how many new raises you need to
achieve your goal
Relationship and account management.
Study the most frequent backgrounds in your sub
products and ensure there is over all supply for those backgrounds in the sub
product
Study number of realization's you have had split in countries
per quarter in the sub product in the previous year
Bottlenecks and solutions 2. Lack of external knowledge (access for students to international markets, preparation on business skills provided by companies); Study the users/searches on manage.aiesec.org of
your major partner countries in the past year to see whether your focus sub products are being demanded by the users in your country;
Study the users/searches on manage.aiesec.org of the countries your TN’s prefer for the same to understand possible new supply for your demand;
Study the comments of the EP’s realized to your TN’s in the sub product to understand how you need to improve it.
To check the Global ORS System, check out the video online and some tips in
what/how to use it properly
How to use Global ORS
After getting in the platform this is the overview of the dashboard. You have access to click in Open/In progress/In review/RA/Rejected. For each indicator you have the explanation when you swipe it.

How to use Global ORS
Clicking in open, you can manage all the subscriptions, adding labels and converting it quickly. Also, you have the option to export all the data through excel, if needed.
2. Communication between entities (MC, LC, Companies and EPs);
Bottlenecks and solutions
First of all clear understanding in what we can provide as LC/MC
(in terms of EPs or TNs). It is all connected in understanding
about supply and demand. For that, in the next slide we have brief explanation how to use it.
Having in mind how can you deliver your product, your
communications problems will be solved.
Have honesty when troubles are happening during your
recruitment. GIP is challenging and generates smaller volume than GCDP. Have in mind clear
steps for it.
2. Communication between entities (MC, LC, Companies and EPs);
Bottlenecks and solutions
Solutions for this topic are around:
Podio and Gmail connections between
you as MC and LCVPs for easy/fast matching.
Newsletter focused in the country partner (it can be bi-weekly/monthly)
with relevant content for EPs;
Report for companies about how is current
situation of TNs (max 1 page)
Keep the channel open with your partner. Bi-Weekly calls of 10-15
minutes are enough to keep the good relation in
this situation.
3. Visa Issues;
Bottlenecks and solutions
Wiki visa will be released on december 5th!
3. Visa Issues (Step by step);
Bottlenecks and solutions
MC ROLE
LC ROLE
What to do
3. Visa Issues;
Bottlenecks and solutions
MC ROLE
1. Embassy – Meetings to improve relationship;
2. Consulate – Same as above, with more executive power, solving
documentation issues;
3. Industry Federations and Commerce Chambers – Having those partners by your
side, as TN takers for example, it is a huge step for having endorsement and
legalization documents among the entities above.
3. Visa Issues;
Bottlenecks and solutions
LC ROLE
1. Companies engagement – having companies
understanding about each and every step for visa,
there is possibility for the companies to help and
add value and improve facilitations among visa
solutions for the interns;
2. Universities – in some countries is required/needed
universities partnerships and this is a special
requirements. Sometimes Eps must be enrolled with
the university still and they are able to endorse their
come and they are a door to work with embassies
and consulates;
3. Visa Issues;
Bottlenecks and solutions
LC ROLE
3. City Council – it is your responsibility to understand
from host entity side how to work with local authorities.
Having this you are also able to deal with the points
above;
4. Immigration office – having the proper
understanding in registration matters, length of stay
and needs from authorities to clarify documents EP, TN
Taker and AIESEC might need not to have problems in
the future considerin legalization.
4. Supply creation among Tiers
Bottlenecks and solutions
Ideally 1+2 match with a country makes it an ideal partner;
Country only with 2 is a good potential partner to work with and drive supply
via demand;
Country with 3 is a possible partner to grow with in the liong term
4. Supply creation among Tiers
Bottlenecks and solutions
• Ideal division of goals in Tiers (remember yours)
1st
• The number for GIP should be split as follows:
2nd • Any tier, Tier 1- 55%, Tier 2- 45%, Tier 3-5%
3rd
5. Companies always selecting;
Bottlenecks and
solutions
•After contract signature have always the next meeting set;
1
•Have a higher performance in delivery (account management). This way you will gain the trust for a RE-RA opportunity in the next follow ups
2
•Having this in mind, your account management will increase performance, assuring a good client servicing;
3 • Meetings should
happen between 15-30 days for smart relations and fast matching of intern and TN;
4
• During matching time: be direct to the point, brief and transparent;
5
• Show facts, negotiate the TN situation and always define a next meeting.
6
5. Companies always selecting;
Bottlenecks and solutions
One of our biggest bottlenecks is:
Expectation setting during sales
(examples below)
•Company is not sure about which country they want in the beginning and then afterwards during matching process they need interns from specific countries that are not that easy to match;
1
•Another example is that company need a person in specific month and then after a while they change their mind and want for another month and even less interns than promised before;
2
•3rd is regarding servicing: If it is only from AIESEC side and not from company side (but in sales meeting it was combined before that company would do it and are not accomplishing it)
3
6. EP Preparation (lack of it) and Support.
Bottlenecks and solutions
Exchange Programme Induction, AIESEC
Understanding, Value of Exchange, Goal setting
(LEAD Implementation in Local and National Level);
Cultural Preparation; Understanding about
specific type of business EP is going to work with;
National and Local Partners engagement in OPS for GIP
EPs;
English level and certificate needed (in specific
countries are required, others not). (Poland GCP with Education First – EF);
Registration of every matched EP to quality
systems (India GCP Discover India);
National Control Boards with “Red phones” or Podio forms for better touch points with
Exchange participants if entities have low response
when it is problematic.
