Ahh, February…the month of Valentine’s Day, Black History, and…the CDO Internship Fair! Ever since we got back from winter break, it seems like a switch has been flipped, and EVERYONE is coming into the CDO looking for something to do this summer (and for Seniors, something to do post-graduation that doesn’t involve living in your parents’ basement). I know it can be hard trying to get an appointment with one of our Career Counselors, so the CDO is hosting its annual Internship Fair, an event where we put all of our resources out on display for you to check out (and hopefully find your dream—paid—internship!).
So, why should you come to the CDO Internship Fair this Wednesday, February 4th, from 1-4 pm?
-There will be all sorts of directories containing internships in all fields, from communications to science research to film (although if you want to get a job making advertisements for a movie about the wonders of Drosophila, you might have to do some digging)
-Refreshments will be provided (I don’t know about you, but free food is always a good reason to attend an event)
-Our staff (including Career Assistants) will be on hand to help with any questions (and resume critiques!)
-Don’t let that job on the other side of the country slip away because you don’t know where to live! We have summer housing info for all major metro areas (NYU dorms, anyone?).
-Not sure about what area of work you want to go into over the summer? No worries, we also have flyers on temp agencies around the country (who knows, maybe you’ll end up attending business school, becoming a “wunderkind” at Corporate, and hopefully not end up in jail for fraud).
Hope to see you there! (Mention this blog, and you’ll receive a free “No, I don’t know what I’m doing after graduation” pin!)
