Getting an internship can be a very important part of your career. During your internship you will work in a professional setting with people who are working in the very industry that you hope to be a part of some day. In some lucky cases, you may actually get a full time job through your internship. Even if you internship does not result in a job, you are sure to benefit from having it on your resume.
In order to get a great internship, be sure to use all of your contacts and resources to get in at a great company. First, get in touch with the career counseling office at your school. Your career counseling office should have information on tons of internships that you can apply for. In addition to perusing their resources, speak with one of the career counselors to learn about which companies are the best to work for. Ask which companies are most likely to hire interns.
Also, be sure to ask teachers if they know of any great internships that you should go after. Your professors should know a great deal about companies in your field. Furthermore, many professors have other jobs in addition to teaching. Perhaps one of them could put you in touch with one of their contacts in order to get an internship. It is also possible that your teacher might work with a company for which you could intern.
Also, be sure to use any other contacts that you have to get a great internship. Do you have a family friend who is in your industry? If so, perhaps he or she can put you in touch with a company that you would like to intern for. If you have a family member who is currently working in your prospective career industry, perhaps he or she could help you to land an internship at a great company.
Also, remember to use contacts in other cities and other parts of the country. If you are still in school, perhaps you could spend the summer in another town in order to take part in a great internship. If you have a contact in another city, be sure to get in touch with him or her and ask if they know of any companies or offices that are looking for a summer intern. Summer internships are great experiences because you will work more hours and get to know the business and your supervisors better than if you were just working a few hours per week during the school year. Also, there are many companies that offer stipend pay to summer interns. This will also give you the chance to get to know a new city!
