What type of design internship would be best for someone exploring different creative career paths?

Hi! I am graduating from college this coming spring, and I am interested in finding a design-related internship. I enjoy being creative and want to explore different career options before deciding what I would like to pursue long-term. Ideally, I would love an internship that exposes me to a variety of projects and responsibilities so I can discover what I enjoy most. I have also been considering interning with an event planning company because it seems like a great way to combine creativity, design, and organization. For those with experience in design, marketing, or event planning, what types of internships would you recommend for someone in my position? Are there certain roles or industries that would offer a diverse experience and help me figure out which career path is the best fit?

How can I start a student club centered around Health policy and Advocacy?

I am a 300 level nursing student and I would live to start up a club centered around healthcare student getting involved in health policy, advocacy, health awareness, career development and innovations. Basically what the club is all about would be raising awareness among youth or healthcare students about health polices and governance, how they can use their voices to advocate for better healthcare structure. I don't want the club to just be only about discussion or theory but where people can provide practical solutions to problems, pitch realistic health policies and advocate for their various fields. Also I want the club to like a raw platform for students who are passionate about health governance. I want to know what are the first steps in getting this started, what are ways this can be achieved and how can student lee initiatives go out there and make their voices heard and how can we stay relevant even to our immediate students society.

How to Find Grants in line with my company so I don't get fired?

How to Find Grants in line with my company? Recently, I networked with a guest panelist at an event and pitched myself to her unknowingly, she also happened to need a virtual assistant at her startup and I immediately filled the role. For the experience I'd said and I'm always grateful to be a part of the team. Fast forward to after my final exams, I had more free time and so I was put in research team as lead researcher for external funding media. I put in a lot of work on the back end, I've exhausted 2 joggers in the name of research. But after narrowing down all the grants I find, barely any are a good fit and I end up crossing most out.. This just goes on to show as little work on the surface. And I was called out recently with an almost promise to terminate my internship even before it officially. I promised to do well and beyond during this last month because truly, I don't want to lose this role when my boss created it because she believed in me. PS: the startup focuses on giving hands on training and connecting the graduated trainees with employers and the major goal is to make the company a standard check for Talents in the Tech field for employers. TL/DR: how to find tailored grants and external funding as lead researcher for a tech and employment focused startup so I dont lose my job.

How can Network with accounting firms in Colorado if I live in Texas?

I want to live in Colorado after I graduate. I currently live in Texas and attend college here, so most accounting firm networking and recruiting events I go to are for Dallas, Houston, and other Texas cities. How can I start networking with accounting firms in Colorado and increase my chances of getting accounting internships there so I can hopefully get a job in Colorado after graduation? I keep getting rejected from accounting internships in Colorado, and firms I meet at networking events often say they want interns to receive return offers in the same location. Should I focus on getting an accounting internship in Texas to build my résumé and experience, then move to Colorado and apply for full-time jobs after graduation, or should I keep trying to get an accounting internship in Colorado?

What do I do if I want to pursue law school after my master's degree and CPA licensure but I've been given a full-time offer to go back to an accounting firm I had been interning for?

I am a sophomore in college and I'm currently navigating the internship world for accounting. I'm starting the game a little early, but I want to go ahead and get my foot in the door. My plan is to pursue an MSA and obtain my CPA license, but I also want to attend law school to become an Attorney-CPA. I've been second guessing my goals now because if an accounting firm offers me a full-time position I feel as though I should take it because they may not wait around for me.

Should I volunteer or should I get a job?

I am a junior in high school interested in psychology, criminal justice, art, and history. I am not sure which one in particular to be honest, but I'm not sure whether I should be seeking volunteer hours, a job, or an internship. I already am in some honors societies (NAHS & NHS) which I get volunteer hours for as well as I'm president of my D&D club. I have also been an intern for a summer camp this summer. Also, if so...could you recommend some good job/volunteer/internships in the triangle area of NC! Thanks so much! (EDIT: This question has been answered! Thanks so much for all the advice to everyone who gave it.)

How do I get internships in chemical engineering and research opportunities?

I'm a 3rd year chemical engineering student with a decent cgpa of 9 and so far I've completed 1 online internship on process safety management and an internship on water analysis which was a part of my academic curriculum. As I begin my 3rd year in this field, I am constantly looking for internships but i see a lot of companies offering internships with a fee. I find it a bit odd... when i first joined college, I thought an internship is when i work for an organization, they pay me or they don't (unpaid one is fine too) but me paying someone to give me an internship is just weird. But since I just have around 2 years left for my graduation, I'm worried that i haven't done enough internships. Recently, i viewed some online courses on the 'coursera' website like certified courses on excel, python and data analytics which seem interesting to me. So I wanna know if i should take up these courses. Will adding these course certificates to my cv or linkedin help me boost my internship and job opportunities? How do i get an internship in a leading chemical company?

After earning a college degree, what is the next step for sports journalism?

Is it ideal to seek out internships, or should I let opportunities find me? Is it best to try to get a deal with a news source and pump out work? Or do I shadow experienced sportswriters and hone my skills? The world after college feels so broad, so I would appreciate advice on how to find guidance.

How to get into a good law firm after graduating from law school?

I’ve been wondering about the tedious task of eventually applying to try to get into a good law firm. Of course I know you have to have a good LSAT score and graduate from credited law school, but I also hear all the time about careers needing real world experience. I’ve thought about the sender to this being to apply for internships , but when should I start. I’m currently wrapping up my second year of college and work in a restaurant. I want to get a jump on my career and have the best chances to succeed. So, the big question is when is the best time to apply for internships and how to find good internships or ways to get my feet wet before I get my bachelors. #spring26

Like for instance you have a job in the field you are getting a degree in, will that job count towards the internship if it isn't labeled an intership?

What was your engineering internship experience like?

I'm a senior in high school who is going to be studying aerospace and mechanical engineering after this summer. I definitely plan to do some internships and get real experience when I can, like over the summer while I'm in college. My question for those engineers who did internships is what was that entire experience like? Where did you work, what was the schedule like, what kind of real experience did you get, etc. And, if you could do anything better when it comes to getting real experience, would you do anything differently?
