Yesterday during club hours a flyer with the words networking caught my attention because nowadays it’s all about who you know. Therefore I made my way though to meet with the representatives from MLT, SEO, and Inroads who were offering paid internships. All through out the meeting they kept mentioning “sophomores and juniors apply”. And I said to myself, there must be something for freshmen. Therefore when it was over I walked over to all three, introduced myself and asked them what opportunities did they have for me. SEO told me they actually did have a program for freshman, while the other two said to apply anyways, either way a lot of people don’t get in on their first try.
I started college with 20 credits and by the end of this year I should have about 50 credits. I believe that should be enough to be considered a sophomore if I apply. I’m not sure, I’m going to check with them first. Therefore that is what I am going to be doing this weekend. (If I can get to it because since I just turned 18 my job is taking advantage and giving me really late hours!)
Wow that’s great! You started this year with a lot of credits, I’m sure you will be able to get a great internship. And hopefully with one of those firms because they will lead to even bigger opportunities. Good luck!
