Please encourage your kids to start applying for summer internships early.
Most of the good internship programs are finding it difficult to
recruit
Enough students. Please do not send your children to work
In McDonalds, and departmental stores during the Summer without
checking out
These ones first. Most of these ones will help jumpstart their
career growth
While still in college and even guarantee them an employment
spot after
Graduation if their GPA is at 3.0 or higher. Some are even
begging for students with as low as 2.5 GPA. For some of them, you might
need
To push the school to apply for it on your behalf. Please note
that they
Have strict deadlines. Below are just a few:
