For higher education

Arm your students with the most competitive resumes upon graduation

Ensure your students find gainful employment by integrating Externships into your courses and degree programs.

Bring Externships to your institution

“Externships are a great way for students to get hands-on experience

with the business or industry they’re pursuing and a great way for companies to connect with future employees."

Mitchell Weinstock

Venture Partner at HP Tech Ventures

Graduating without competitive work experience is no longer an option for current and prospective students

52% of graduates are underemployed a year after graduation because the majority of entry-level jobs require an average of three years of experience.

Students who had internships during college are nearly twice as likely to secure a job after graduation.

But building programs with companies that guarantee internships is costly, burdensome, and often not even possible. Integrating remote Externships into coursework and curriculum ensures your students can build their resumes, while earning their degree.

During my venture capital Externship, I learned how to use industry-standard metrics and tools like SQL and Tableau to determine startup success potential. This opportunity helped me stand out as a candidate and opened new doors for me - including offers from EY and Accenture.

Beats by Dre Extern

Extern played a crucial role in bridging the gap between my formal business education & real-world application. The opportunity to present actionable recommendations to the Head of Customer Insights at Beats by Dre was invaluable, propelling my leadership journey and paving the way for my current role at Rolls-Royce.

Kaniel Richardson

University of the Virgin Islands,
Hugo Boss Extern

From ethical sourcing to eco-friendly practices, I learned the power of data in driving sustainable change during my Hugo Boss Externship.
