Our candidates may agree to take projects on a voluntary basis if they are appropriate and can be fit in around their schedule. Any placements that more closely resemble jobs should be positioned as paid placements, unless there are special circumstances such as charitable status, a complete lack of revenue, etc. Students may agree to volunteer for organisations with such worthy causes. This will be decided upon in a case by case basis, so please do not hesitate to contact us and discuss the merits of your placement idea!

If you are in a position to pay, and find that after 3 weeks your Covid Intern has been a success, we will charge a modest fee. Fees are necessary to make our social impact initiative sustainable. If your organisation is a charity, new start-up, or gravely struggling, we can offer pro bono placement services.

The Covid Interns will search for a suitable counterpart in our database of signups and facilitate the connection between you and the counterparty. Once we have identified a suitable opportunity, we will first contact the students and confirm their interest in the identified role. Once interest is confirmed, we contact the business with the volunteer details so that the business can screen the candidate to ensure he/she is appropriate. Once both sides have agreed, we then introduce the two parties via email. The two parties then finalise the placement by discussing the elements of the role.

It depends. If you are in search of a very specific intern/placement, the wait time can be slightly longer to those seeking more general opportunities. The feedback on wait times so far has been overwhelmingly positive – most businesses and students are getting connections within one week of signing up. This is not a guarantee as each case is different, but the team works very hard to make timely placements!

Covid Interns administration remains available for all queries, comments, and requests before, during, and after the placement has been made. If you have feedback, either positive or negative, we will be on hand to adapt the placement and/or organise a new placement if needed; Covid Interns is intent on making placements that add mutual value.

By all means – word of mouth, LinkedIn, and website sharing are all very welcome as we scale the initiative further. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you would like to promote the platform in any way!
