20 Virtual Internships Up For Grabs

CAREEREALISM Internship Badge [Large]By J.T. O'Donnell This past summer, we held our first 'virtual' internship. (In fact, it was highlighted in this Wall Street Journal article.) In exchange for free career coaching and course credit, students from D.C. to India, ages 18 to 50, came together to learn the power of Twitter, social media, and virtual teamwork. The program exceeded our expectations to the point that we have decided to offer it again.
