What are some jobs that will allow me to study and work with the criminally insane?

I'm a sophomore in high school and I'm very intrigued with the minds of criminals and I'm curious to get to the "why?" of crimes and how their minds work. I want to get an internship eventually and I don't know where to start looking or what place I would be working at.

How do i find a research opportunity for winter break?

I’m a college student studying data analysis and biology and over my winter break I would love to do hands on work in biology and I don’t know how I would reach out to zoos or aquariums to see if I could do anything. I don’t really know if any positions like this are available but I don’t think it would hurt to ask

What should my next steps be to gain a career path in Human Trafficking Prevention?

Hi, I am currently undertaking an undergraduate in Anthropology and International Development in England and have gained a deep passion for human traffic prevention. I am trying to figure out the right next steps in order to be useful in this field and become more desirable to companies. I am considering a master's in International Human Rights Law, however, this being a LLM, I'm not entirely sure if this is useful considering I am not a law student. Any advice here? I am also considering the internship route, which will help me gain physical experience. I have a desire to work with victims who have recently escaped trafficking, however, is this possible without a social work/care degree? I am the first in my family to study here and would love any advice to get me closer to this field. Thanks :)

I finish my Bachelor this upcoming year and I have zero experience in anything. What should I do?

Hello everyone, I am Rea. Currently a student in Political Science. As I finish my Bachelor studies this upcoming year, the pressure has grown. I have zero experience. I have never worked, never done an internship, never participated in activities related to my field of study and I have never evenvolunteered! I have had my reasons, including lack of knowledge when it comes to the field of employment and other personal issues related to my mental health. Now that my life is more in oder, I feel so hopeless when it comes to my career! I tried to apply to an internship,I wasn't accepted. I have applied to another internship, still haven't heard from them but the chances of approval are slim. My Cv is very....empty. I tried finding an internship this summer in my city and there were no opportunitties. I don't know maybe it is my degree that doesn't offer many opportunities... :/ I have tried finding internships that were also related to social work, not only to my degree but I still couldn't find anything! I also applied to two organizations as a volunteer and I wasn't called. I think these organizations today want to have high school students or middle school students as volunteers and not grown up adults... I feel very hopeless and I feel a lot of pressure. :( I do have great grades and a scholarship of excellence, but uni knowledge won't get you far... What should I even do?Where do I even start?

How to navigate the unfamiliar and demanding nature of counseling school age children without falling apart?

Hi there, I am currently completing my second/last internship for my Master's in Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy. My internship last year was with adults with acute and chronic mental illness. This year, I landed a last-minute placement with a nonprofit organization that places graduate Interns in schools. I am placed at an elementary school as a school counselor, however, I have never worked with school-age children in any capacity. I have a brief experience as a preschool assistant and have taken multiple developmental psych classes. The nature of the internship is going to be very hands-off (me doing everything from ground zero) from asking for consent forms to pulling students out of classrooms for a session which is putting me in a vulnerable place. I am not a very assertive individual. How to navigate the unfamiliar and demanding nature of this new experience without falling apart? P.S. I am expected to begin next week. Thank you!

How to get a finance internship as a basic undergrad student?

I am an international student doing my bachelors in finance. I learn a lot of new concepts at uni but I am really unsure of how to use them in real life. I want to get my hands dirty with numbers and actually put the concepts to use but getting an internship seems to be really hard. I am fine with doing projects relating to my field of study. Please do share your ideas on how to break into the corporate world as a fresh undergrad and gain as much experience as possible.

Is it okay to apply for internships as a recent graduate?

I recently graduated in May with a B.A. in English, but the job search is feeling very difficult because there doesn't seem to be many openings for the positions I want to do (grant writing or editorial/publishing). There seem to be more internship (paid) listings, some of which are open to recent grads, so I was wondering if it would be a good idea to apply for these internships so that I can at least hopefully earn more experience in the meantime? Or is it better to focus on trying to find a full time job? Thank you.

How can I get some work experience in high school?

I ran out of classes to take at my high school - so now my day ends at 1PM I really want to do a cybersecurity related internship with the half day I have off. I'm really excited about the field (I've been involved in a related competition since freshman year, and I focused on it at a MIT summer program), and I'm eager to see the real life applications. From a professional standpoint, is this attainable? I understand companies might be hesitant to take on high school interns, especially seniors. I honestly am really excited to get hands on experience in the field and would love to continue this into the spring/summer. My family doesn't have any connections in the field and I've been pointed to cold emailing. Any tips on how I could approach it? Thanks in advance!

Internships at 17?

Hi, I recently graduated high school and decided to take a gap year. I want to go abroad (mostly Europe) and do internship(s), etc. The problem is that most programs I found that offer internship placements abroad require you to be at least 18 and I don't turn 18 until January 2025, meaning I'd waste half of my gap year. Does anyone know where I could find internships that would accept a person my age? If not can anyone at least suggest alternative things I could do until I turn 18? Thank you :)
