WHAT IS AN INTERNSHIP? \n\nAn internship is a unique aspect of education that integrates study with planned and supervised career-related work experience.  Students are involved as non-paid “authentic employees” receiving academic credit for work experiences.  The purpose of the program is to develop and strengthen the student’s educational and career preparation.  An internship will expose the student to the interpersonal relationships a job requires, both with co-workers and supervisors that are essential in obtaining a successful, satisfying career.  Internships enable employers to assist the high school in preparing students to work in today’s business environment.

generally what you are looking for would be an internship under a cpa and you will need two years of it to get a job...problem is that no cpa wants an inexperienced intern...yes, it is for the general public (business included)..i am an accountant but not a cpa...i wont be a cpa either because a cpa can be sued and i have found that more often than not the general public will be very shady with their books so transactions can be hidden even from an accountant and this opens a door that i dont even want to venture through...you will find corporations that dont act as such (piercing the corporate veil)....i suggest you just go to a local if you dont want college and apply for a job....i did however get a diploma in accounting

I have graduated and still have no idea what I want to do.  Try to get a hands on experience in the fields you are interested in.  It may turn out to be a disappointment.  Even if you have to volunteer, it would be worth it.  I did an internship the last year of college and was shocked and hated every minute of it, now, I'm a little stuck.  Get some experience and then make a decision.

Hospitals are the best places for internships.  Also some drug stores such as Osco, CVS, Walgreens, etc. might be worth giving a call.

Probably not. Internship are usually reserved for students or recent graduates in order to GAIN work experience. It sounds like you already have it. You will just have to keep applying for jobs and hope for the best.

Go to your local college's internship office.  Read what past interns have said about the companies they interned for.  Then choose one.

If you are looking to do something which will assist in getting into college continue to work and do volunteering as well. Colleges always look at extracurricular activities when viewing applications. It takes more now than just high grades and an employment record. As young as you are you have high levels of energy and lots of time. You should take advantage of not having any personal responsibilities other than school, employment and use your time wisely. Don't get caught up in the partying and other irresponsible behaviors so many youth do these days. It will really harm your chances of gaining entry into good universities.\n\nGood luck and much happiness always.

Get an internship in a Public Affairs, Public Information, or Communications office at a museum, a newspaper, or some big corporation. They don't pay much but are great experience. Do everything they ask you to do cheerfully, even xeroxing, and gradually you will learn about everything in the office and also, it's a great foot in the door. Where I work interns frequently get hired at the end of their internships if everyone likes them and they did a good job. Don't be afraid of hard work. You will also be able to see what kinds of jobs there are and figure out which one you'd like--writing press releases, dealing with calls from the public, answering letters from people who write to the company, etc. Good luck!

Some other areas are to check locally with professional women's groups, community foundations and also check your library or university library.  There is a big blue book that lists scholarships, grants and fellowships that is put out every year.  Your librarian will know what I am talking about.    Also look for areas such as essay contest and such that provide money too.  There are typically two times,at the university level for undergraduate money to be given, when you enter as a freshman and also at your junior year (normally when you are in more of your major classes.  Talk with the Dean's office on scholarships to apply for that are only offered to students of that college.  Financial Aid should also have a list of these.  March 1st is usually the time next years applications are due.  I am speaking from personal experience since I have worked for three universities.

If you are currently a medical student, the college you attend should have information available about internships.\n   If you are a high school student, consult with a guidance counseler.

You need to do an internship. Yes, its legalized slavery, you get next to nothing and work hard, but you will have real world experience to put on your resume. Even if it's only  3 months, or 6 months, it will put you ahead of people without it on there resume.

Yeah but depends on the situation... for example take me, im a college student looking at the moment for a place to do an internship 'cause its required for me to graduate. But since i havent found one yet, im trying to get a job at a call center for a credit card company... way out of my career path, i studied industrial engineering. But since im doing nothing, just eating and sleeping and waisting my time, why shouldnt i take the job... So it all depends on the situation, if u really need the money then yes, meanwhile look in other places in which u might be interested and apply to them.

Many companies offer internships, try doing an online search for internships.  I've seen offers from Hormell and UPS online.  Also, there are some reliable scholarship websites out there, and they provide some opportunities like you are looking for. When in doubt of a scholarship website, research it, NEVER pay for any information, scholarships are free, as well as grants, and internship offers.  GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take your basic requirements first.  It not only helps to get them out of the way, but it also buys you some time to get familiar with a variety of disciplines so you can see what you really like before you declare your major!\n\nGetting your basics done first allows you to concentrate on what you REALLY like as a Jr. and Sr.\n\nTrust me on this one......I'm a person who knows.

Yep, the internship route is usually the best way.  I'd also think about doing something on fashion at your college newspaper.  The advantage there is that you can pretty much do what you want, but when you intern at a local company (perhaps the local newspaper), you'll probably be stuck doing obituaries or something until you get some experience.  Basically, it's tough to just walk right in to the position you want.  You normally have to work your way in.
