What businesses receive

  • Access to a talent marketplace of the UK's top university students, trained in AI workplace integration
  • We recommend students based on your brief and what you need. You can still browse our exceptional pool and choose the right fit.
  • On request, the student helps you use AI inside the firm, and takes on your other project work
  • Or they can focus solely on AI workplace integration consulting — you set the scope in your brief
  • TEC does not take a cut of what you agree with the student

Our approach

How we work with businesses

You give TEC a defined piece of work. Students are reviewed against that brief and recommended where they fit. You can still browse the pool and choose yourself.

01

Start with the work

Set out what needs doing, which tools it runs on, and how you will judge success. Say whether you want AI workplace integration only, or that work alongside your other project work.

02

Hold the standard

A student is put forward only if they can show present ability and a willingness to learn quickly.

03

Onboard to your methods

The internship starts with a student prepared on your tools, and ready to learn on the job.

04

Stay with TEC

If the placement goes well, keep recruiting through TEC. Matching runs all year round. Compensation stays between you and the student.

How it works

What happens once you are with TEC

TEC receives your brief and reviews applicants against it. You then choose who to interview.

  1. 01

    Submit your brief

    Set out the deliverable, the tools, the timetable, and what a good outcome looks like. Say whether the student should focus solely on AI workplace integration consulting, or that work alongside your other project work.

  2. 02

    Review recommendations and browse

    We recommend students based on your brief and what you need. You can still browse our exceptional pool and choose the right fit. Each card shows skills, availability, work mode and university details. Shortlist the ones worth a closer look.

  3. 03

    Message and select

    Unlock a conversation, then confirm the match on the selection sheet when you are ready. Screening, matching and interviewing typically take one to two months.

  4. 04

    Place the internship

    TEC onboards the student to your tools and working habits so they can contribute from the first week.
