On October 5th, my friends and I decided to attend the Internship Seminar which is a part of Baruch’s Starr Career Development Center. Initially, I was very intrigued to attend this workshop because as an incoming freshman, I was not vert well-rounded on the topic of internships and the multitude of requirements that came with it. Personally, obtaining an internship has always been a pressing and overwhelming thought lingering in my mind, yet I had no idea where to start or how to possibly learn more about it until I went to this workshop. Hosted by Michael Kalish, I got the opportunity to learn everything about internships in great depth such as how to find internships opportunities, making the most of your internship, and the different types of internships available including the OCR internships and how Baruch offers credit for them. Despite the fact that internships credits are mainly given to second-term seniors and upper classmen, I was interested to find out about the Zero-Credit route since I never knew this could be available for freshman until today. Additionally, I was surprised yet excited when Michael Kalish briefly touched upon the topic of resumes and the importance of them as well as the main points that need to be included in them. Along with internships, I did not have a thorough understanding of everything that a resume entails and this workshop was the perfect way to learn about both the resources available at Baruch to assist us with the process of developing a resume and how to obtain an internship. The fact that Baruch has so many resources to assist us with resumes and internships such as mock interviews, Focus 2, and Vault, makes me feel that the process won’t be as overwhelming and I know I can always rely on the counseling center for any future questions/advice. After this seminar, I will definitely be utilizing as many resources as possible to ensure I’m prepared and confident going into internships and interviews.
