Questions Corner: Your Questions Answered!<\/span><\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
Did you see the Career Center tabling in Worner Campus Center on Halloween? We asked you to share questions you were afraid to ask the Career Center so we can answer them in our newsletter. <\/span><\/div>\n
This week’s question is: Where do you start looking for Internships? Can I do an internship between graduating and before getting a job? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Start your internship search by first thinking about what you want to prioritize in your search. Is there a specific location you have in mind? What type of industry would you like to get experience in? <\/p><\/div>\n

Update your Handshake<\/a> profile and create a LinkedIn<\/a> account. These two resources are a great place to start setting up automatic job alerts by putting in your search criteria like location, key words, and \u201cinternship\u201d as a filter.<\/div>\n
Come to the Career Center to talk through your search strategy in a drop-in appointment (Monday – Thursday 1-4 pm) or by making a formal appointment <\/a>on Handshake! <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
