NYU Micro-Internship Program:

NYU Micro-Internships are funded by the Wasserman Center for Career Development.  You will not receive an invoice for this project. 

There is no limit to the number of students you can work with or how many projects you can host. The program is limited to each NYU sophomore only completing one project.

In short, it’s easy as Parker Dewey handles it all.  No HR burdens. No questions about ownership or worries about confidentiality/liability.

• Employment: Micro-Interns are not your employees, contractors, interns, temps, or freelancers. Similar to working with a consulting firm or any other service provider, you are engaging Parker Dewey LLC to complete the assignment, and the student you select is a contractor or employee of Parker Dewey. 
• Liability: Parker Dewey assumes all liability. Not happy with the work product? We’ll work with you and the Swarthmore team to determine next steps.
• Work Product: All work product is owned by you. 
• Confidentiality: While most projects involve public-facing information of a non-sensitive nature, both Parker Dewey and all Career Launchers sign strict NDAs to protect your information. In addition to the standard provisions, the students understand that they are risking their academic transcript or expulsion for any violation of confidentiality.
• Background Checks: Given the short-term nature and structure of these assignments, we do not conduct background checks. While companies are always welcome to conduct a background check directly, the nature of the specific assignments and lack of a direct relationship with the individual who is selected has caused most organizations to defer the background check until after a Micro-Internship is completed and a student is offered a traditional internship or full-time role.

NYU Micro-Internships should all be remote opportunities.  This makes the opportunity more flexible and accessible both to you and the student.
