An internship is a chance for you to gain experience, learn more about your career field, and increase your chances of getting a job. Internships are a great way for you to gain some insight on your career path, and try to cultivate valuable knowledge. If you’re about to start an internship, or you’re already an intern, here are a few tips can probably help you turn that internship into a full-time job:
Make a Good Impression
We all know how crucially important it is to make a good impression if you want to get a job. But the kind of impression you make is the trick that might get you hired. A great impression isn’t just about the way you appear, or dress. As an intern you must impress your superiors with your dedication, hard work, and motivation. You have to prove that you have what it takes to be a full-time employee, and that means working just as hard as the rest of the employees at the office. Don’t opt for special treatment; ask your superiors to assign more challenging tasks for you. Show your enthusiasm, and your capability of tackling complicated tasks.
Take Initiative
Your first internship might be the highlight of your career, but to the company you’re working for you might just be another intern. In order to outshine any other intern that worked there before you, make sure you take initiative. Even if you’re done with your tasks, ask your superior if they have any other tasks for you, or ask if any of your co-workers need any help with their work. If you have a great idea for a new project, don’t be afraid to share it or own it. Showing that you are willing to do more than what you were initially assigned to do will prove how much of an asset you would be as an addition to the team. By exceeding expectations you will show how passionate you really are about your work.
Follow Rules and Guidelines
Every company has its own rules, culture, and dress code. Make sure that you comply with all the rules, and demonstrate that you can easily fit within the culture of the company. As an intern, take time to learn more about the company’s policy. How much time is allotted for your lunch break? How many breaks are you allowed to take a day? Are you allowed to make personal phone calls? Make sure you have the answers to these questions in order to avoid any future discrepancies that can jeopardize your chances in getting hired.
Find Your Selling Point
If you want to get hired, then you have to show your boss how different you are from pervious interns. Prove that you will be a successful addition to the team. As an intern, it’s very important to get out of out comfort zone and try to impress your superiors by bringing fresh new ideas to the table. You have to be different, in order to stand out. Be someone that your company needs. Sometimes, even when there’s no vacant positions for you, if your internship has been fruitful and has proven to be beneficial for the company, then your superiors might even create a new position for you.
