In a resume workshop, you will fine-tune a resume which will be sent to approximately 200 different organizations. The internship program, however, is designed to help you find your own internship so that when it comes time to find future jobs, you will know how to update your resume, search for a job, and interview successfully. Opportunity Students have the opportunity to prove not only their academic skills but also personnel qualities employers are looking for a sound work ethic, good judgment, and sense of responsibility. Experience Interns receive valuable real-world experience under the watchful eye of an experienced professional. Confidence Interns develop confidence in their abilities.
