Front end and Wordpress Programmer

About us

We created Capital Placement 8 years ago as a platform to simplify international opportunities & remote internships for university students and recent graduates. Today, we offer our customers the opportunity to intern in London, India, Singapore and New York. We are a diverse team with a head office in London and a team in Europe and Asia.

Our concept is simple. As a candidate, instead of wasting time researching internships, visa regulations, safe places to stay, and applying for positions, sign up to Capital Placement and have Capital Placement sort out everything for you. As a company, instead of trying to look for great talent using channels that yield low-quality applicants, gain access to a pre-vetted candidate who passes our high qualification bar and are actively seeking exciting opportunities.
