Building Your Internship Story
我们所有人都努力争取实习，工作经验以及进入专业环境的机会。实习经验使一个补充故事可以讲述自己。它可以回答您的成就，学到的知识，您的影响力以及您的关键要点是什么？在将来的访谈中解释您的实习故事时，对这些问题的答案至关重要。鉴于您在夏季完成的1000份作业和任务，这可能非常困难。将您的故事缩小到90秒的音调似乎是不可能的。我在实习的早期就面临着这一挑战，并且能够制定一项策略来帮助建立我的整体故事并为我的经验找到一个主题。
Note taking and reflection have become an essential element to constructing my story. All it takes is about 15 minutes at the end of each week. During this time, think back to the original questions: what did I accomplish, what did I learn, what impact did I have, and what are my key takeaways? The ability to summarize these answers each week leave you with 10 chapters of your story by the end of your internship. Reading back through your answers will often reveal a common theme and allow for your most impactful events to stand out, leaving a clear outline of a story to present. Challenging yourself to take this action will allow for personal and professional growth. As you move through the rest of your internship, set time aside for reflection and it will carry your story a long way.
