its pronounced intern not lackey!!

at first thought everyone thinks of interships as unpaid tedious work or hard labor. sometimes its difficult to see what can be gained when its not the kind of profit you have in mind. although there are paid internships i find that the ones with no pay usually offer more to gain. interning has a stigma that can never be erased although very little internships still live up to it. most internships have become the apprenticeship of our day. many people have learned about the field they want to be in based on these internships. internships are very helpful in various ways. one that i enjoy the most is meeting new people and building relationships. in this day with all the daily struggles and financial troubles, a helping hand is always helpful.

going into an internship there are a few thing you must know. 1st. dress to impress! some places may have a business dress code, but if not try to dress presentable! no t- shirts of your favorite band, no baggy or super skinny jeans, and please, if you're going to wear sneakers make sure they are clean!!!! 2nd. dont go into this experience thinking you are going to be the next sean combs. chances are you are not going to start off as an intern and then eventually become the Ceo, it just doesnt happen that way. 3rd. treat this experience as a real job. this is exactly how you show the people you work around good work ethic and your capabilities. this is how you get offered a job in the end.

in a nut shell interning should mostly be a learning experience of some kind and should not be one that you get nothing out of. with every task (even the tedious ones) try to complete them as if it's the task that can get you a job working there. with this read i think it should be a fun experience interning and if not...dont forget what i said!!
