  • Externships - Guest: Kyle Jones

    In this episode of DirectConnect, Steve Parker, Managing Partner at Archer, sits down with Kyle Jones to talk about Externships. Externships are short-term, practical work experiences that allow students or professionals to observe and engage in a specific industry or career field. They are typically shorter and less formal than internships, often lasting from a few days to a few weeks. Externships provide an opportunity to shadow professionals, gain insights into day-to-day operations, and explore potential career paths without the commitment of a longer-term internship.
