June marks the start of a new season of opportunity. While many students are beginning internships, summer jobs, or other experiential learning opportunities, employers are already thinking ahead to future talent needs. This is an ideal time to keep students engaged, strengthen employer relationships, and highlight opportunities that help both groups build momentum for the year ahead.

Have Use-it-or-Lose-It Funds?
As the budget year comes to a close, if you have remaining funds that need to be allocated, consider a Micro-Internship program. Programs are a scalable way to provide paid Micro-Internships exclusively for your students, engage employers of all sizes and locations, and stretch your budget to support as many students as possible.
This approach not only creates exclusive, hands-on opportunities for students but also helps employers better understand the value and impact of Parker Dewey Micro-Internships.
You can learn more about programs and see examples here. If you’re interested in exploring this option, our team would be happy to connect and discuss what it could look like for your institution.

Students and recent graduates are invited to join Parker Dewey staff at these regularly scheduled events for assistance and to learn more about Micro-Internships, how they can help them get their foot in the door with companies of interest, and how to make their applications stand out.
