As a student nearing graduation, looking for an internship is the next important step, and most students do not have much experience in this. I am also looking for an internship, here I will share some useful resources and methods of using these resources.
The first step is to make an appointment with your advisor. They have a lot of resources and knowledge about internship searching. The questions you asked them the previous students would also ask. And they will provide you with many suggestions that you didn’t think of before.
The second step is to prepare a beautiful resume. The first thing is that the layout of the resume should look very professional. The HR needs to read dozens or even hundreds of resumes a day, and those resumes that are not professionally formatted are basically ignored. When writing a resume, assume that the person who reads the resume only has about 30 seconds to read, and don’t write too much text. This is the Career Development Center of our school, where you can learn about the difference between RÉSUMÉS and CURRICULUM VITAE (CV), and make an appointment to help you improve them.
The third step is to prepare to go to school or online platforms to communicate with your potential employers and submit your resume and cover letter. This step requires you to always pay attention to the campus interview event mentioned in the email sent to you by the school. The Handshake and LinkedIn on the Internet are also very useful resources.
Finally, I hope everyone can find a good internship.
