Internships are all about gaining experience! In fact, employers often create internship positions so they can teach students about their company and have a positive impact on shaping the future of their industry. When preparing to apply for an internship, think about why you have an interest in the job and see if you can connect it to any relevant life experiences or hobbies you may have. And keep in mind that your high school courses—especially career-focused electives—can be highly valuable experiences, too.
