During the last week of classes we are taking time each day to share the available career resources students can access at all times. Today the resource spotlight is on our “Micro-Internships” section.

What are Micro-Internships? Unlike a traditional internship, these paid opportunities typically range from 10-40 hours of work in total, and many can be completed remotely. For students, Micro-Internships provide opportunities to build skills, explore career options, expand their professional networks, and prove themselves to prospective employers. Micro-Internships offer a tangible way to connect our busy students and recent graduates with organizations and companies from various industries and disciplines to foster career growth. Note, it sometimes takes a few applications before students land a micro-internship, but once they have one, they are likely to get more – encourage them to check the postings often! 

Please encourage your professional connections to post and your students to apply for these short-term, low-risk, high-value projects by visiting: here!
