Kevin Davis and First Workings were featured in Inside Higher Ed’s article Online Internships Fail to Meet Expectations.
In the article, reporter Lindsay McKenzie dives into the findings of a recent study conducted on online vs. in-person internships, using Kevin as a source to explain the challenges of online internships: “Without in-person opportunities, it’s extremely difficult for students to establish strong connections within a work environment, namely through networking or casual water-cooler talk,’ said Kevin Davis, the founder and executive director of First Workings, a nonprofit organization that connects high school students in New York City with paid summer internships.
We are excited to share that First Workings’ mission was at the core of this story and our Founder and Executive Director’s voice was among the thought leaders quoted.
