| Hey Dragondawg, I basically just went on the companies' websites and looked for internship information. I made sure I sent in all the required info (essays, recommendations, etc.) and when it came time to interview, I tried to stand out from the rest. You guys would be surprised to know that there were many people from CC's in the internship programs I did.
Even though my grades weren't spectacular and I only went to a CC, the companies seemed like they were looking for something different than the type of school or academic achievement. Don't get me wrong, having good grades is always a plus, but there's way more to it than that.
Sure, I've probably been rejected because some guys saw my application and dismissed me because of my school. But I'm really happy with the intern programs I've been able to get. |
