The University of Colorado Micro-Internship Job Fair
July 20 - July 22
Join us for the Virtual Micro-Internship Job Fair!
Is your business crunched for time on deadlines? Do you have a short-term project that you could really use help finishing? Between budget cuts, less staff, and lost revenue, the pandemic has left many companies with less bandwidth for work that still needs to be completed.
Our students are eager to help! Created in response to COVID-19, the University of Colorado’s Micro-Internship Program connects companies in need of immediate, short-term project assistance with ready and talented students.
Haven't heard of micro-internships? Simply put, they are short-term, paid, professional assignments that provide students with valuable, hands-on experience in the business world, all while supporting companies where they need it most. Projects can range from work in sales, marketing, tech, HR, finance, and beyond! This is your opportunity to give micro-internships a try, and we are here to guide you through the process.
Benefits include:
? A low risk, low cost, high-value option ? A pipeline of talent to draw upon in the future ? Out-of-the-box thinking from entrepreneurial students ? The most current business knowledge and skills ? A valuable connection with Leeds and CU Boulder
