have any of yall been in internships? what did you intern as? did you gain anything from interning? how did you present yourself when they had to interview you? how long was your internship?


i myself want to interview into famous industries like teen vogue or out, but i don't know where to begin.

i interned last semester at school, but i have no clue why they called it an internship. it was just like a job and i mostly ended up doing assistant work. it was alright. this isn't helpful either though.


i agree with michael, research the place beforehand and know what it does. also prepare yourself for the most basic of questions, like "why do you want to work here?". if you can't tell them why you want to work there specifically then you're probably screwed. also i think it's good to have a question or two that you want to ask them. in any interview i've ever been in they ask at the end if i have any questions. my last boss afterwards said she prefers when people ask a question because it shows them they've actually thought about working there. my stock question is to ask what the work environment there is like.
