Finding an Internship

Begin Early

Finding an internship takes some planning and may take some time depending on the type of internship. Be aware that certain industries and internships have early deadlines and recruit and hire as early as November. Although this is not the norm, many summer deadlines occur between January and April. Beginning your internship search during winter break affords you additional time to look for internships and perhaps make some valuable connections with alumni or professionals within organizations of interest prior to returning to college.
