I agree with Jameson -- It could be quite a niche market. And I do think that many companies would hire students because A) they're cheaper, B) they're moldable and C) it's like a try-before-you-buy program. Students get to try the job out and the employer gets to try them out for a small project. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't but it's like getting into a relationship with no strings attached. Don't we all want that? It’s great to see this idea fleshed out. I agree with Jameson — It could be quite a niche market.

My big concern is the crowded freelance market which you identified. Why would someone want a student specifically. Maybe you could buy and adapt the Anthillz platform.
