A little about Internships. They are great experience, and can sometimes lead to a job.

Tweet

First off, Internships don't always lead to jobs.

But they do look great on a resume. And if they like you a lot, and have an opening, they can be a terrific way to get a job. Sometimes.

An internship can be a practice run on a job you think you might like. They are often unpaid, and offered for a limited time.

But you can do great work at one, and make a difference too.

Here are some great pages I found on finding an internship in a field you like or would like to learn more about.

And if summer internships at a site are filled, jot these addresses down OR make your own list for next year. The sooner you apply for these, the better.
