Career Services: Internship Orientation

It was a nice overview for academic internships. It focused more on the paperwork side of getting an internship. I mean, of course the cover letter and the resume, but more so about the paperwork associated with getting credit at school. It was a whole different process that I didn't realize was involved with getting an internship for credit.

Even though this orientation was explaining more of the "dull" side of getting an academic internship, it also was stating important questions such as "what do I want to learn from the experience" or "what kind of place do I want to work at". My answers were broad because I wasn't sure. But the more she discussed the different areas we could improve on, the more specific my answers became.

It was a bit dull, but I feel that I have a tad bit more direction with what I want to learn from the internship experience.
