High school students can benefit from internshipsAs a high school student, you may think that an internship is something you pursue as a college junior and senior in preparation for your career after college. However, according to a study conducted by Millennial Branding, a research and consulting firm, and Internships.com, an online resource for student work experience, gaining new skills and professional connections as early as high school can help position students for future success. About the survey With all of this data, it may be difficult to make a case against interning as a high school student. If you're considering an internship, be sure to create a practical schedule that balances schoolwork, extracurricular activities and your internship. It's important to build experience and make connections, but overloading your plate could be counterproductive. Not only would it cause you a great deal of stress, but it's also difficult to give your best effort when you're juggling so many priorities. Getting accepted Also, it's still important to create a résumé that includes key information like part-time work experience, professional objectives, your high school GPA and any noteworthy awards or recognition you've received. While you may not have experience that is directly relevant to your chosen career field, this information will demonstrate how serious you are about your future. |
