Over the past few weeks, I have been doing a series on interning. I talked about my experiences and various roles, ways to be a good intern, and what to wear at work. Like any experience, interning is what you make of it and what you personally invest.
As a closing thought, I want to encourage any current or future intern to invest yourself into what you are pursuing. Whether you find yourself in a best case situation or a stepping stone toward something else use every experience to learn. Not all situations will be ideal, yet these opportunities can be the best way to learn something new. It can be difficult to find internships that have the ideal qualities you are looking for, but do not lose hope. Put yourself out there in order to find what you are searching for. Whether that means contacting a company directly or networking in a unique way, take initiative for what you want to accomplish. You never know what might come up and the worst you could hear is a simple "no." You might receive an opportunity that you did not have intentions for and later realize is was the best situation that could have happened.
Life has a funny way of working itself out. What is meant to be will work itself out you just have to be patient and work hard. It's cliche, but true.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17
