At Xylem, we're focused on solving global water challenges and helping create the next generation of water and sustainability leaders. The world has the opportunity of a lifetime
to solve water, and Xylem is committed to leading the way.

Here's how:

Micro-Internships are short-term, professional assignments that are similar to those given to recent college grads or interns. Beyond providing you with immediate support, they also complement Xylem's campus recruiting program and provide alternative pathways to professional roles in our organization.

These remote, flexible, paid projects also enable diverse early-career candidates (including first-generation college students, student-athletes, and even professionals working while completing their degrees) to participate, even when our standard internship doesn't fit into their existing commitments.

Projects typically require 10-40 hours and can be bundled to create a longer-term experience.
Each project has a discrete deliverable, making it easier for managers and Micro-Interns to evaluate outcomes.
Micro-Internships are available year-round, as needed.
