Internships

Internships are a way to gain relevant work experience, get your "foot in the door," and develop your professional network.

Here are some ways to prepare for your internship search and embark on your internship journey.

• Attend career preparation workshops and employer connection events.
• Schedule an appointment with your department's internship coordinator.
• Browse internships on Handshake and Parker Dewey Micro-Internships.
• Seek internship application guidance, interviewing advice and leads from a mentor in the Aztec Mentor Program
• Leverage your social network by using LinkedIn to connect with your peers, companies, organizations and employees who may have leads. LinkedIn may also have internship postings that are not on Handshake, but look out for scams and fake postings. 

For further guidance on resume or cover letter writing, internship searching, networking, and more, you can schedule an appointment with one of our Career Management Leads [PDF] through Handshake.
