As part of any program
you complete with Chicago Center, you will complete an internship placement.
The summer session has the following requirements:
- Four days/week
- 32 hours/week
- Six weeks of placement
Our internship search began at the
Chicago Center classroom when meeting with Lane, Scott, and Whitney. We were
all given sheets of paper that gave us each a list of potential internship
placements based off of our interest that we gave when we applied to the
program. We were then given multiple sheets that gave us helpful tips on how to
search for internship, call potential employers, schedule interviews,
completing interviews, and then accepting positions. These papers were
fantastic! The Chicago Center did a great job on how to complete this search
and choosing an internship that is a great fit for each person individually.
Before hand, we were all incredibly nervous to see how the search would be
conducted, all of our nerves were calmed immensely after this.
My internship search went a little
bit like this...
Internship Choice:
My internship that I chose is
Friends of the Parks. Friends of the Parks is an advocacy organization
non-profit whose job it is to protect the parks. I am looking forward to see
what this internship has in store for me for the next six weeks!
