Regarding internships for high school students
Hello, I'm Jensine. Currently a junior in high school (grade 11), Here is a brief introduction of who I am: I'm a passionate individual who loves to learn. My dream job is to be a CEO. I hope to start a company in the near future, thus I'm looking for internships in social media, marketing, and sales. I enjoy math and business, but plan to major in business. I demonstrate leadership and am a great team player who always seeks the best result. Another thing is that I am hardworking and dedicated. No matter what the task is, or how hard it may be, I complete to the fullest of my abilities and produce the best outcome. Here are my questions: 1. Do you have any internships for high school students that I may qualify for and relate to my interest? If so, please share, I would really appreciate that! 2. What documents would I need when applying? (ie. Resume, Cover Letter, Work Permit, etc.) 3. How should I prepare? Any tips? Is there a certain aura I should give off? (Should I remain professional + to what extent do I have to be friendly) 4. Anything else to keep in mind when applying + doing the internship?

Rejected of two rounds of applications and interviews for Counseling Practicum?
I am a master's student in Art therapy and Marriage and Family Therapy. Our program requires more than 750 hours and requires at least 500 of those hours to use art therapy with clients; the rest can be talk therapy. So, there are limited practicum sites that I can apply for. There are limited sites in my area. I am NOW at the point where I am applying to sites that are over a 75 minute driving commute (one way) time. I have gotten rejected twice after interviewing from 2 sites. My first round of applying, I applied to four sites and had two interviews. This round I have applied to 6 sites, and have had two interviews, with one more scheduled. Many sites, filled their positions within a week, that I was not fast enough to even apply for. I am doing all of this work on top of my regular graduate work, work, while having disabilities. I am feeling emotionally defeated and drained. If I can not get a practicum site, then I will not be able to graduate and become licensed. I am furious at the situation. I understand that COVID-19 caused many sites to close for supervision, and now the competition to find a site is very high. How are my less experienced classmates getting hired while I am not? But I am not the only one in this boat, one of my peers it took her three rounds of applying before she got a site, she felt it was partially due to age discrimination. I am wondering where I am going wrong? I am working closely with the practicum director and a career counselor. I did not have this problem when applying for regular jobs, and even the job I am currently at wants to promote me. So what am I doing wrong? I am also working closely with a career coach and the practicum director. I have a website and a digital portfolio, which I have specially for practicum.
I'm in a position where I can't accept most positions at this time. Should I still practice applying and interviewing for places, knowing that I most likely cannot accept the offer?
