There’s no reason why any company should not be using Micro-Internships. It is the easiest way to add value to the organization by getting some projects completed, giving students the opportunity to learn, and being cost-effective.

I knew I wanted to be mindful of costs without jeopardizing quality and through Parker Dewey, it was low-risk too!

I loved the philanthropic impact of giving someone real experience in a live production environment. It was a win-win to provide opportunities for professional development while getting on-demand support.

You can interview, but you don’t really know how you’ll work with a person until you actually work with them. With this, you get to try someone for 20 hours and make sure your working styles match!
