An internship is a work experience, usually semester-long or summer-long, 在一个你想进一步探索的领域或者你想获得经验的领域. 实习可以是全职或兼职，有薪或无薪，有学分或无学分. 这些细节和期望取决于你、你的雇主和CCV.

The program includes internships in nearly every career field, including the Hawks on the Hill internship program, which specifically addresses public service. 实习是学生、雇主和十大菠菜靠谱平台之间的一种合作关系. Each partner has a responsibility to be honest and ethical. Each student represents not only him- or herself, but also his/her academic department and the College. Conduct and performance should be of the highest standards.
The Benefits of Interning
- Career-related work experience
- Exposure to professional work environments
- 将所学知识和个人技能应用于“现实世界”
- Networking
- Resume builder
Internship experience makes you more mature, more professionally polished, and teaches you things beyond what you can learn in the classroom. You’ll appreciate your education more as a result, and you’re likely to perform better academically after having worked. 在大学期间寻找经验可以帮助你学习基本的求职技巧，这样你就可以在毕业时为找工作做更好的准备.
要找到一份实习工作，请与CCV、你的学术部门和其他在线资源合作. CCV将帮助你找到合适的职位，引导你的职业方向.
Interviewing
面试过程是获得研究生或专业学校或就业机会的一个极其重要的部分. 典型的面试从你被介绍给招聘人员的那一刻就开始了. This can be an awkward time if you are not prepared. Stop by the CCV for a practice interview or for interviewing tips. Remember, the résumé gets the interview, but the interview gets the job or graduate school slot—or not!
Resumes
Resumes are, in many cases, 你给潜在雇主留下的第一印象——良好的第一印象至关重要. Although we offer resume-writing workshops, 我们更愿意与每个学生单独合作，以发展他或她的简历. Bring with you to your appointment:
