This week's Career Specialist Tip of the Week is brought to you by Mariah Gordon: "Looking for internships? Now is the best time of year to do so. Companies typically recruit for internships a year in advance, so if you want to land an internship, it is important to start applying in your Junior year. And guess what, despite popular belief, most internships are paid! Here are some benefits of an internship: 1. Apply Theoretical Knowledge in the Real World 2. Develop Professional Connections/Networking 3. Increase Chances of Direct Job Offers- Data from NACE reveal that nearly 8 in 10 employers extend job offers to their interns. 4. Earn College Credits for Internships **not applicable for all programs** Not sure how to find internships? It's easier than you think! LinkedIn is a great source for finding early career programs/internships. Follow companies you are interested in and connect with their early career recruiters. Indeed is another great option, especially for finding local internships. Lastly, partner with your Career Specialist and the Center for Career Advancement to attend upcoming informational sessions and career events with Purdue employer partners." #PurdueGlobal #PurdueGlobalProud
