Get paid, professional experience with Micro-Internships

Parker Dewey Micro-Internships are open to students and recent graduates who meet the following criteria:

• 18 or older
• Currently attending or have recently graduated from a US-based higher education institution
• Authorized to work in the United States or have a valid ITIN number

There is no official cutoff, but Parker Dewey is designed to help early career professionals launch their careers. For this reason, established professionals likely won’t find the projects as valuable as current students or more recent graduates do.

Because most companies are using the platform intentionally to engage early career talent, established professionals are also less likely to be selected for Micro-Internships unless their profile makes it clear that they’re transitioning into a new career field.

Projects completed through Parker Dewey are available to international students who are either affiliated with one of our partner programs or those attending a US-based college or university. In both cases, the student must have approved Curricular Practical Training (CPT), Optional Practical Training (OPT), or other work authorization.

If you are a current F-1/J-1 international student, contact the proper office at your institution (typically international student support or your academic advisor) to confirm your eligibility before applying to projects.

If selected for a Micro-Internship, it is your responsibility to ensure compliance with internship requirements and USCIS regulations.

Undocumented students in the United States can participate in Micro-Internships however you must have a valid social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), or employer identification number (EIN) in order to be selected for a project and receive payment.
