sashsh88 is seeking the inspiration and motivation, to be determinated
I NEED to get an internship at an accountant firm by februari 2010. This (5 month) internship is obligatory…only then I can go to the 3th year of Accountancy.
This is how i’m doing it:
1) I’ve updated my CV
2) I’ve placed my CV on job seeking websites
3) I’ve allready been to 2 job interviews
4) And I’m going to apply by sending letters with my CV to several accountant firms that I find interesting!

I’m applying for an internship this fall. I wish I’ll get a great one soon.

I kinda slacked this summer. I sat on doing applications which resulted in my bumming around all summer doing little to advance myself. However I have done some research and have my sights set on an incredible internship opportunity with NASA this summer. I have done some networking and have a great contact from within NASA for a recommendation. I just need to maintain my focus and do what is necessary to be competitive. I also want to find other internships I am interested in so as to increase my chances of finding one.

tamz23 is running, yoga and meditation.
been putting this off. I kind of like the stability of my life now- searching will kinda throw everything into chaos again. but it must be done.

Today I wrote a letter to V Marketing, I don’t care if I get paid or not, just as long as I get some experiance and keep myself busy.

i haven’t heard a response from the place i really want so i wrote them a short email, thanking them for the interview and telling them i’ll be available in the fall if they need another intern then. i got a response, saying that they’ve been so busy that they haven’t had the time to make the decision yet and they hope i’m still available for the summer. so, still waiting for that phone call!
since that interview, i’ve applied to about 40 places. i’ve gotten a bigger response than i thought i would have. interviews, interviews, interviews! in fact, i was offered an internship yesterday but ultimately turned it down because while it’s for a big name and they were willing to give me a lot of creative freedom, i didn’t feel like it would help me advance in what i truly want to do.
meanwhile, a friend recommended me for a position at her workplace. it’s not related to anything that i do, but it’s good money, so if i don’t get the internships i want right now, i think i’ll just work and save money for the fall.

i sent my resume to over a dozen places in the past week and a half.
i got a call back and interviewed for one. i think it went well and they told me to email them and they’ll get back to me a week later, after they interview other people. i got a nice response to my follow-up email and have been waiting for the phone call since. i really, really want this one. it’s a really valuable opportunity that would help me a lot for my future.
of course, while i’ve been waiting, i’ve been applying to other places. i got two responses for interviews. one requires college credit and i don’t feel like paying money to do an internship. i also don’t have the money even if i wanted to.
another place got back to me and i gave them some times we can meet so hopefully they respond.
but, yeah, i just want this place i already interviewed for to call and say, “We want you to be our intern.”

There’s a perfect internship available, that I am just dying to get. It is a position at a magazine in Boston, my hometown. The location is perfect and opportunities abound.
I am pursuing the position right now, typing up my resume and cover letter, and getting references.
I will be sending in the complete application in the next several weeks, so we’ll see how it goes! :)

So my interview was this morning, it was a sort of roundtable style, informalish, with 2 people from the organization and myself. they didn’t even look at my resume, cover letter or portfolio until after i left. it seemed like they wanted to take me on before i got there. i think they gave me a lot of credit for seeking them out and having an understanding of how they would fit what i was looking for.
so the interview went well and emails were quickly exchanged with my academic advisor so that it is approved for spring semester.
phew. i am so glad that i got my first choice, and i feel like it has the potential to be fantastic.

So on Wednesday I made calls to 5 places I had looked into and I got a call back! I need to do an internsnip this spring for credit so I made sure I was on the right path with my advisor and the next step is ::gulp:: the interview. I called back my contact and I am on for Wednesday morning!
Time to freak out a little. I’m not terribly worried about the interview itself. But I do want to make a good impression and I’m dress up retarded. I over analyze everything: high heels or no heels, small bag or medium or briefcase style? Gah!
Advice!
