October Already??

So Fall Break is already over. We’ve already had 2 quizzes, 3 tests, a presentation and one more midterm this week.  And one week from tomorrow, registration for classes next semester starts!
This semester is FLYING by!
At the start of orientation, we started talking about our internship search and now I’m beginning to see why. All of our resumes are done, so that is step 1. But that’s the only step I’ve really completed. I find myself so concerned with grades and tests and readings for that particular week, I forget my ultimate goal of this year…to land a Marketing internship. Since it’s just for the summer, I’m pretty open to opportunities in different locations. I just need to start making connections through info sessions and reaching out to my friends and family members who may have additional contacts. I know that at least 2 classmates that have worked in the Marketing/Advertising industry and could be great resources for me.
In our career resources class, we started an internship discussion forum. Each person is assigned a week to post on an assigned topic to enhance our internship search. Everyone keeps saying that our classmates are our best networking resources, so we may as well utilize each other and our diverse backgrounds. Hopefully this will jumpstart each of us into researching more for internships early so we won’t have to worry and stress out late second semester!
