Micro-Internships
Micro-Internships help companies get immediate short-term support for projects while identifying and evaluating students for possible future hiring needs.
Our Micro-Internships program connects companies to students and recent graduates to execute professional, paid, short-term assignments year-round. Micro-Internships provide opportunities for students to demonstrate their skills, develop relationships, and explore career paths, while providing real value to business.
What is a Micro-Internship?
- A short-term project – Typically a week to a month.
- Requires no on-boarding – Can explain it in less than 5 minutes.
- Done by college students or recent grads – Important, but low-risk tasks.

Micro-Internships allow professionals to get support on short-term, professional assignments, while also identifying and assessing highly motivated college students and recent graduates for full-time opportunities. Unlike traditional internships, these paid opportunities typically range from 5 to 40 hours of work, can be completed year-round, and help teams scale up seamlessly–with no unnecessary expense.

Improve Hiring Outcomes
Companies have recognized that major and GPA do not predict career success or fit. Micro-Internships improve hiring effectiveness by allowing companies to authentically evaluate a student’s skills and work ethic upfront. Both employers and candidates win by having an opportunity to do actual work with one another before committing to an internship or full-time role.
Providing Meaningful Opportunities to Students
Micro-Internships enable students to utilize classroom knowledge to complete professional assignments while gaining experience and demonstrating research, problem solving, and communication skills. Your company can give back to the community by creating authentic opportunities for students. Micro-Internships enable businesses to audition talent to see how they fit into the company. This innovative way to evaluate candidates alleviates temporary resource constraints while Students showcase their skills and character.
