Internships
Create A Micro-Internship Program
UNLV has partnered with Parker Dewey to create the UNLV Micro-Internship Program. These are short-term, paid assignments that can be completed by a current student or recent grad with minimal guidance or on-boarding. Micro-internships provide you access to a larger talent pool, assist in attracting top talent, improve new hire retention, and provide your busy hiring managers with some just-in-time support. Unlike a traditional internship, these assignments typically range from 5 to 200 hours total, can often be completed remotely, and can be done in any department in your organization.
