MicroInterns

Whole projects from as low as £349

One price covers the whole micro-internship: scoping, matching, the managed workspace where your plan includes it, and the MicroSkill Passport at the end.

What it costs depends on how much of it you want us to run, from a project you steer yourself to one we manage end to end.

Sending a brief is not an order. It starts a scoping conversation, and you see the number before anything is agreed.

What you pay

£349+

per completed project, students’ pay included


  • No subscription or platform fee
  • No hire, conversion or placement fee if you keep someone on
  • No charge to students, ever: not to join, not to apply
  • No fee to post a brief or to talk to us about one

What moves the number

Four things, and you will know all four before we send a figure.

Length
One week sits at the bottom of the range, four weeks at the top. Duration is the biggest single factor.
Scope
A social-media audit and a full customer-research programme are not the same brief, even at the same length.
Skills required
Specialist technical work is priced differently from generalist research or content work.
How much we run
The floor price is for a project you scope and steer yourself. The managed plans add scoping help, curated matching and a Project Manager, and they cost more because of it.

A work address, please — we send this to companies rather than to personal inboxes. We use it to answer you and to see who is looking. More in our Privacy Policy.

What the project price covers

  • Scoping

    We turn your description into a brief a student can actually deliver against: deliverable, timeline, success criteria.

  • Matching

    Shortlisting from the student side, so there is no advertising spend, no CV pile and no interview round for you to run.

  • Project management, where included

    On the managed plans the work happens in a workspace with a Project Manager keeping it on track, rather than in your inbox. The pricing document says which plans include one.

  • Student pay

    Every student on the brief is paid, and that sits inside the project cost rather than arriving as a separate bill later.

  • Onboarding and paperwork

    Agreements and payment handling are ours. You are not adding anybody to payroll.

  • The MicroSkill Passport record

    Your sign-off on completed work becomes the student's verified record, and signing off takes one click.

The other ways to get this work done

A single job-board advert costs more than the floor price of a finished project, and it buys you applications rather than work.

  • Job-board advert£370–£435

    Applications you still have to sift, interview and manage

  • Recruiter (graduate hire)£4,350+

    15–25% of first-year salary, before the person has done a day's work

  • MicroInterns projectfrom £349

    A scoped deliverable, worked in parallel by matched students, plus a working interview if you want to hire
