Connecting Career Launchers with Companies through Micro-Internships
About us
Parker Dewey is a platform that facilitates Micro-Internships, helping companies recruit college students and recent grads, while also providing on-demand support for busy professionals. By offering opportunities for Career Launchers to execute short-term, professional projects, companies can engage, assess, and recruit prospective candidates for full-time roles or summer internships, including those students who might not otherwise apply or get filtered out by traditional processes. As a result companies, improve hiring, diversity, and retention outcomes. This approach works because busy professionals appreciate the immediate support from highly motivated college students on projects that would otherwise take them 5-40 hours to complete, and don’t require deep expertise in the space or access to sensitive information (eg content creation, lead generation, research, data cleansing, etc.). While not the best use of time for an experienced professional, college students and recent grads are excited complete these projects as a ways to demonstrate their skills, build relationships, and explore career paths. And given the structure of Micro-Internships, they are easy to use, there are no administrative or HR burdens, and there are no costs should a Micro-Intern get hired for an ongoing role. In fact, as a mission-driven organization, we love when this happens!

🚨 More applications ≠ better candidates. One-click job applications were supposed to make hiring easier. Instead, recruiters are drowning in a flood of resumes while great candidates get lost in the process. Our latest post explores why more applications don’t always mean better hiring—and how small shifts can make all the difference. #Hiring #TalentAcquisition #CampusRecruiting #MicroInternships #SkillsBasedHiring #FutureOfWork https://hubs.li/Q034jmT80
Rethinking Early-Career Hiring: Why More Applications Don’t Mean Better Candidates
-
Many employers emphasize the importance of core skills like work ethic, coachability, and communication yet continue to lean on GPA and college prestige—metrics that fall short of predicting real potential. Consider the missed opportunities, such as student-athletes brimming with coachability being overlooked due to their GPA or first-gen students known for their resilience being disregarded because they didn’t graduate from the “right” schools. 😬 Are traditional methods like resume books, career fairs, and automated filters the best way to assess talent? How can we better align our hiring practices to truly measure the skills that matter? Share your thoughts below! 💬 – 📚 For deeper insights into rethinking early-career talent assessment, check out our latest blog post here: https://hubs.li/Q0348SGB0 📥 Stay ahead of the curve in early-career recruitment by subscribing to our Hire Learnings newsletter for weekly insights into recruitment trends and strategies; subscribe here: https://hubs.li/Q0348WpJ0 📌 Interested in personalized guidance on your recruiting strategy?

Is the traditional focus on degree requirements holding us back in the evolving #jobmarket? As we experience the complexities of hiring, the real conversation isn't just about whether to require degrees but how these requirements serve as an imprecise proxy for the skills needed. At Parker Dewey, we advocate for a refined #hiring process that directly assesses #skills, making recruitment more effective, simpler, and more accessible. This shift is vital as we seek innovative ways to hire and retain exceptional talent. 🤔 What are your thoughts on degree requirements and their role in skills-based hiring?

Are recent grads really the problem—or is it how we hire? Companies say they value work ethic, coachability, and problem-solving, yet they still filter candidates by GPA and pedigree. That means great talent is getting overlooked. It’s time to rethink how we assess early-career candidates. More on why the hiring process needs to change in today's blog post. #Hiring #Recruiting #EarlyCareer #SkillsBasedHiring #MicroInternships https://hubs.li/Q033pLmm0
The Real Hiring Problem Isn’t Recent Grads—It’s the Process
