How do people look for internship projects and internship opportunities?

More and more students and parents begin to attach importance to internship, but everyone has many questions about internship!

In the first three weeks, we answered the following questions for you:

Do I need to apply for an internship now? When is a good time to start internship?

What kind of internship is helpful for applying for American graduate students?

How to prepare for better internship and employment during college?

Today, we continue to pay attention to how you look for internship projects and internship opportunities.

I hope that choosing the teacher's answer can give you some help.

"The child is a freshman in engineering, and he intends to take an examination of beauty research and seek domestic internship and scientific research guidance. Where can I find these items? "

Choose the teacher to answer:

Generally speaking, professors in every university have projects in their hands, and many students never pay attention to what projects professors have, what projects they like, what projects they want to do in the future, or what fields they want to set foot in in in the future graduate stage.

My suggestion is to find suitable professors and programs in our school according to the current professional direction. If you have some project foundation in your junior year, you can apply for more difficult scientific research projects in foreign universities in the summer.

"Sometimes internships are hard to find. Do you have this service? In Beijing. "

Choose the teacher to answer:

What is the reason why it is difficult for you to find an internship? Is it that you can't get in touch with the way of internship delivery or hit a wall in the process of internship delivery and interview? In the process of assisting students to find internship positions, they usually don't send resources to students, but guide students to prepare resumes and interviews, make clear their self-awareness, screen matching internship positions with students, and guide students to improve their skills through the interpretation of job requirements.

For example, students who want to apply for the finance major will target investment banks, securities companies or fund companies, but when looking at the demand, they will find that many companies will require data processing ability and know some data statistical processing software, such as MATLAB, Python and Java.

Therefore, the process of guiding internship is not only to tell students which positions can be cast, but also to let students know how to improve their competitiveness from the early stage.

"Are there many internship opportunities in the College of Arts and Sciences?

Is it easy to find a job in America after graduation?

What are the employment opportunities in China?

Is it better for liberal arts colleges to rank high?

Which is more valuable, liberal arts college or comprehensive university, which ranks after 50?

For example, Ohio State, Connecticut, Fort De, college of wooster and Willamette, how should they choose? "

Choose the teacher to answer:

The graduates of liberal arts colleges only account for 3% of American undergraduate graduates, but in Forbes magazine's list of the richest CEOs in the United States, 8% of CEOs graduated from liberal arts colleges.

In addition, liberal arts colleges are generally well-funded and have close ties with alumni, so they have great advantages in internship and employment opportunities. Because of the close relationship between liberal arts colleges and enterprises, students in liberal arts colleges can also get more paid internship opportunities. Students can not only get financial support, but also accumulate work experience from internships.

With solid professional knowledge and their own soft power, graduates can have a broader field of employment and high social recognition, which is well received by employers. Therefore, graduates from liberal arts colleges have always maintained a high employment rate, and outstanding graduates from liberal arts colleges who want to continue their studies can often apply to top universities in the United States.

This is the overall situation of the college of arts and sciences, but whether there are many internship opportunities in a college of arts and sciences depends on the specific situation. You can inquire about the vocational center of the college of arts and sciences and other information. As for whether it is easy to find a job after graduation, it depends on the majors students study and the excellent level of students themselves. And what kind of liberal arts college to choose, I think we can't blindly look at the rankings, and the best school is suitable for us.

Therefore, I suggest that students and parents can first find out what kind of schools are suitable for students, sort them according to their own preferences, and choose liberal arts colleges. Similarly, the comparison between post-50s liberal arts colleges and comprehensive universities is based on students' situation, and there is no absolute reference for specific analysis.

"Excuse me, teacher, how to find an internship after studying in the United States?"

Choose the teacher to answer:

There are many ways to find an internship, and different majors will have certain differences in channel selection, but in general, it can be divided into the following steps:

First, you should come up with a beautiful resume;

Second, using the resources of the school, American universities have special career centers, which can not only help students revise their resumes, but also regularly publish job demand information of surrounding enterprises;

Third, learn to use the connections around you. Do you know how to ask a senior who has graduated to be introverted? Have you talked to your tutor about your future career development plan? Third, use the network platform to find internship resources, such as "Indeed.com/Glassdoor/Linkedin".

But don't forget, the core point is your own professional ability and communication soft power!

"What majors are the internship positions of consulting companies generally oriented to? Do statistics majors need it? How many months do you publish the recruitment information of internship positions every year? "

Mercer Consulting Partner Jack replied:

As for the major of science, I mentioned in the lecture (WeChat official account reply backstage "20 17 1028" to check the lecture content), internship, management, science and engineering, human resources, psychology and so on. We welcome all these majors, and we also need statistics majors.

But we don't specifically recruit students majoring in statistics, because we don't actually have that much data processing. In addition, our internship positions generally have internship opportunities all year round. Students who need internship opportunities can always pay attention to our company's website.

Next, I will continue to answer your questions about internship and employment every Thursday. Interested students remember to pay attention to choosing the official WeChat account of American graduate students studying in WeChat!
