<p>I agree with you there Northstarmom, on here regular jobs are almost looked down upon by these students when it couldn’t be further from the truth. I think some of the most important aspects of having a job is it really makes you a more down to earth and understanding person. That is what a college wants to see, they want to know you have the skills to succeed not only in the classroom, but also in the real world. </p>
<p>I now understand what you were trying to get across though, not so much saying what he’s doing is bad but more along the lines that it isn’t going to put him way ahead of the rest, and I agree there. This internship will in no way be a dealbreaker or help your application significantly, but I think it is something that will be looked at positively nonetheless.</p>
