How can students explore multiple career paths before they decide on their first job out of college? How can hiring managers work with several interns before they decide who to hire?
Today, Maria talks with Jeffrey Moss, Founder and CEO of Parker Dewey, a mission-oriented organization that helps connect great talent with great companies. Parker Dewey has the largest network of highly motivated college students and recent graduates excited to complete short-term, professional assignments, known as micro-internships.
During these micro-internships, they can demonstrate their grit and exceed expectations as they seek the right full-time role or internship. Micro-Internships also help companies identify and evaluate prospective job candidates for when hiring needs arise. As a result, organizations improve hiring effectiveness, enhance diversity, and drive retention.
This episode provides students and recent graduates with guidance to help them get their foot in the door of potential employers while they get paid for completing professional assignments. It also offers them actionable insights on working on a range of projects for companies of different sizes to help them decide what work they want to do and who they want to work for through real-life professional experiences.
Tune in to learn from an inspiring leader who is creating equitable access to professional experiences as a pathway to a successful career for everyone.
