By CHUCK SODER | Crain’s Cleveland Business | www.crainscleveland.com

Intelligent Mobile Support LLC of Solon has received a $250,000 investment commitment from early-stage investment nonprofit JumpStart Inc. of Cleveland. Intelligent Mobile Support will use the money to make improvements to its software, which is designed to help mobile employees access information and connect with coworkers who can answer their questions. The company also will use the investment to finance a new effort to market the software to companies that manage nurses who travel to patients' homes.

Intelligent Mobile Support has two full-time employees, and it receives software development services from Emprya.com Inc. of Youngstown. The company has a handful of customers with more than 1,000 field service workers using the software.

Dozens of current Youngstown State University students, and maybe even some alumni, were busy on campus Friday trying to get a leg up on the job market.

The University's Office of Professional Practice held another of its "Interview Day" programs at the Williamson College of Business. Nearly 150 students had signed up to meet with representatives to discuss future employment after graduation, as well as student internship opportunities.

"We started doing this as a recruiting means for our students to make it easy for them to connect with employers and between class schedules and we heavily encourage the students to participate because of the competitive market right now for the job market," said Leigh Ann Waring, director of Student Services. "So anything students can do to make themselves stand out would be beneficial. Internships help close that gap for them because they're not only applying what they've learned in the classroom, they're also picking up transferable skills in the workplace." The university has hosted nearly 30 of these programs since 1997. The next one will be held in the spring.
