We are happy to work with organizations as they bring these programs online in a way that's specific to their company's needs and delivers meaningful value to the students." said Founder and CEO, Jeffrey Moss. "We've found that by 'unbundling' the workload of a traditional internship into discrete projects, interns working remotely can have an engaging experience that best prepares them to launch their careers upon graduation. In the same way, managers appreciate the support the interns provide on their projects, and find projects create more authentic opportunities to mentor the college student, all of which can be done remote." Parker Dewey aims to help organizations launch remote internship programs by providing resources for managers, interns, and other employees. With thousands of busy professionals and college students engaged in this type of remote work year-round, resources such as project templates matched to job descriptions, custom employee portals, best practices, and other content have been proven to drive positive outcomes, including intern and manager experience, conversion to full-time role, diversity, retention, and other key metrics. While only five percent of companies have already canceled their summer internships as reported in a recent survey by LDP Connect, there is still a lot of uncertainty as companies are rapidly making decisions. As students and professionals are adapting to remote work, ensuring a valuable internship experience can be critical to organizations looking to hire and rebuild their workforce in the coming months.About Parker Dewey Founded in 2015, Parker Dewey offers the largest network of highly motivated college students and recent graduates who are excited to complete short-term, paid, professional assignments.
