Overview
At Pave we view challenges as opportunities to try something new, learn and grow.
As an organisation that is all about embracing and developing from new cultures, places and people, we find ourselves in unprecedented times as Covid-19 poses risks to our health and ultimately, way of life.
While the increasing travel restrictions challenge mobility and socialising for us all, we are launching a new offering of Remote Internships that allows us to carry on delivering the same inspiration, exposure and development that our international internships in India so uniquely provide.
A Remote Internship through Pave will allow you to remotely intern with incredible organisations based in India from the comfort of your own home. As an intern, you will work virtually with team members in India via an exclusively designed collaboration platform. At a time where we must limit physical social contact, we have designed the remote internship as a constructive experience that positively challenges you and boosts your CV with meaningful work experience in a safe and dynamic way.
Interning remotely will allow you to develop dynamic skills and competencies that are imperative to the future of work and the value of which will surpass the current uncertainties and restrictions. As work and business evolves to be more flexible and globally dispersed, it is increasingly important to develop competencies that will enable you to work and thrive in work environments different to your norm.
You will build skills that enable you to work with diverse range of people and independently from anywhere in the world; all of which will be of immense value to your next job application or to initiating your own entrepreneurial journey.
