About Company

Lensa is a career site designed to help job seekers find employment opportunities within the US. It functions purely as a promoter of jobs on platforms like LinkedIn, working on behalf of its direct clients, recruitment ad agencies, and marketing partners. Lensa is not a staffing firm or agency and does not hire directly for the jobs it advertises. For this particular internship, Lensa has partnered with DirectEmployers to promote the job for “My Florida Corp Defunct” (though the actual employer appears to be the State of Florida). When a user clicks “Apply Now” or “Read more” on Lensa, they are redirected to the specific job board or employer site where the application process takes place. Any personal information collected during this external application process is subject to the terms and privacy notice of that external site, not Lensa’s.
