Big companies are offering internships via the internet, but are they a valuable experience?

Twenty-year-old Jessica Fitzpatrick from Kent is in her third-year of university. Like most students with a part-time job, balancing all of her commitments can be challenging.It's an online service that gives a look inside the work of a lawyer, through a series of tasks, including working on a deal and creating a presentation.

"Although I'm not in the office, there are videos of real partners working there who give me my assignments and deadlines. "They're talking to me from behind a desk so it has that personal, intimate element, as if I'm literally sat in front of them." Answers are provided for the remote interns to mark their own work, so there's no direct interaction between the company and the intern.The cost of living in big cities can put some off applying for unpaid work experience"I love having the freedom to work through all the web-based activities at my convenience," Jessica says.Other companies including KPMG and Citibank, use the same virtual internship service, operated by InsideSherpa.

A substantial amount of these are unpaid. This puts a strain on many people who are unable to afford the cost of travel, appropriate office clothes, or rent in big cities."Digital internships could help to break down some of these geographical, social and financial barriers," says James Turner, the chief executive of The Sutton Trust.
