Your REMOTE Projects + Swarthmore Students’ Talents = SwatWorks

SwatWorks Micro-Internships are short-term, paid, professional assignments that are similar to those given to new hires or interns. These projects enable Swarthmore students to demonstrate skills, explore career paths, and build their networks, as they are mentored by Swarthmore alumni and parents.

 

Swarthmore students have an amazing array of skills and talents and are eager to gain experience. Please consider any short-term REMOTE projects needed by any organization with which you’re affiliated.

Thanks for the opportunity provided by SwatWorks. Having the stipend covered by the school enabled me to use an intern to help an organization that did not have the funds to pay him.

This Micro-Internship helped assist me with determining a career path by opening my eyes to other jobs and opportunities relating to the medical field other than the people working in hospitals/doctor's offices.
