How do I find internships for high schoolers interested in being a lawyer?
Hello! If you haven’t seen any of my previous questions, my name is Karyssa and i’m a 15 year old sophomore in high school and i’m very interested in becoming a defense lawyer. I’d like to do as much as possible to get ahead and get started on working towards my goal. I’m an online school student due to some issues with the people at my public school so I have a lot of time on my hands. I’m looking to maybe start an internship to learn more about the career and was wondering if anyone either knew of internships available in massachusetts or knows how to find them. Thank you!
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?
