Fill in: 'We ___ a concrete, scoped project for every intern before their first day, rather than improvising real work for them once they've already arrived.'
We 'define a project' — the standard, simple collocation for scoping useful work ahead of an intern's start date. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Bringing interns on with no scoped project ready can ___ their first few weeks spent on genuinely trivial busywork instead of real, useful learning.'
We say an unscoped internship will 'leave' the early weeks wasted on busywork — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting waste. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every intern a specific mentor distinct from their manager, so a small daily question always has somewhere low-stakes and immediate to go.'
We 'assign a mentor' — the standard, simple collocation for pairing an intern with a dedicated point of contact. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the intern's actual progress against the original project scope at the midpoint, rather than waiting until the final week to notice it's drifted.'
We 'check progress' — the standard, simple collocation for reviewing how work compares to its original plan. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a genuine, honest final presentation from every intern, since presenting real work to the wider team matters more to them than any parting gift.'
We 'schedule a presentation' — the standard, simple collocation for arranging a formal close to an internship. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
