Micro-internships are a great way to gain experience and explore different types of work and career paths.

Through the Parker Dewey platform, students can connect with organizations in need of support, ranging from Fortune 100 companies to emerging start-ups, with paid micro-internships. The majority of the opportunities are remote and can take place at any time of year. On average the micro-internships typically require between 10 and 40 hours of work in total.

The Parker Dewey website has tips on applying and success checklists. Drake students have participated in the past and have expressed having good experiences!
