Internships
We are considering offering one or more part-time internships to students on track
for at least a 2:1 in information technology related degrees over the next couple
of years.
An internship would offer you an opportunity to do real paid work with
a consulting practice rather than just work experience observing others doing
the job. In essence, you gain valuable experience and some training instead of
just doing a typical student job such as bar work.
We are designing our internships to be flexible. We would engage you on an hourly
rate so that you could fit your work with us around your academic requirements during
term-time as well as during vacations.
The sort of work you would undertake would be varied and potentially tailored to
your individual skills. The most likely areas of work would be as a support
technician, junior software developer or web designer.
We would expect an intern to work from home, like the majority of our staff. You
would also need to visit client sites from time to time.
We may also be able to broker work as part of a student's academic project with
some of our charitable clients. We would not offer a salary in this instance,
but would represent our clients in specifying and signing off the project. The advantage
to the student is that we know what is reasonable to ask for in such projects and
would not ask for things that could not be reasonably done!
