#ISOLATIONINTERN is helping UK startups recruit students and researchers during COVID-19
The UKESF is proud to be supporting Blackfinch Ventures’ #ISOLATIONINTERN movement, designed to help UK startups recruit students and researchers for remote working opportunities during COVID-19. The movement is backed by a number of leading universities and top venture capital firms, and seeks to support companies in their early stages and contribute to keeping the economy on track in this difficult time, as well as providing opportunities for the bright minds currently unable to work.
The UKESF is helping to generate interest and raise the profile of #ISOLATIONINTERN amongst our 24 Partner Universities by utilising our well-established connections and asking our academic contacts to publicise the jobs on offer to their students and researchers. We are also reaching out to our large network of graduated Scholars, many of whom are now part of startups themselves and may know of opportunities for interns, as well as drawing the attention of our Sponsor Companies to the movement.
#ISOLATIONINTERN opportunities are available in various STEM areas and on a short-term, part-time basis. All listing fees are being donated to charities that help talented young people from disadvantaged backgrounds access education from top UK universities.
