Welcome to “Your Turn To Intern”

By Meghan Stoneburner

More to come in the next issue of Coles Chronicle...

*********************************************************************************************

*********************************************************************************************

I don't follow the premise that a college student should just learn what is taught in classes and then expect to find a job right after graduation. I knew I had to do something above and beyond the call of duty in order to stand out among my peers. Getting an internship would give me the edge and knowledge needed to become employed after graduation.

Why did you choose to do an internship?

How did you f ind your internship?

Besides becoming President of the only Marketing club on campus, the KENNESAW MARKETING ASSOCIATION (KMA), I searched for the right internship to fit my goals and my abilities, which was harder than I expected. I in-terviewed for an internship I was very excited about and ended up not getting it. But that almost immediately led me to the SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION (SEO) internship I have now with Jenny Munn, an Atlanta SEO Consult-ant and Trainer, who has helped me learn aspects of the Marketing world that isn't taught in college.

1. Perfecting your Resume

Visit Coles Career Services Lab or the Career Services Center to find out about resumes. Once you think you

have perfected your resume, show it to a few friends and even a professor to see where you could improve. You

don’t want to apply to a bunch of internships with a half done resume or one filled with errors.

After you’ve checked your resume thoroughly, start searching on the sites listed above. Input your major or the

areas you are interested in and where you live or are willing to travel to and see what comes up. If it looks in-

teresting and you fit the qualifications, apply. It’s quite simple. Find what looks like a good learning experience

and just apply. The more internships you apply for, the better your chances of finding the right one for you.
