“How do I secure and navigate an internship (or job) when the entire experience is virtual?” COVID-19, amongst many things, has changed the way we work and engage in the workplace. As video, phone, and email rapidly replace face-to-face interactions for the time being, it’s important for you to consider how this digital-first approach is shaping the internship and job landscape.

This webinar will provide you with a better understanding of what a virtual internship is truly like. Facilitators will also highlight best practices for working remotely, including insights and advice on time management, effective communication, and setting up productive workspaces at home. Lastly, the webinar will include information on virtual internships offered through the Hub and how to identify opportunities that align well with your academic and career goals.

- A liberal arts and/or sciences (LSA) student
