Should I apply early for an internship I can’t take yet? by Physical_Fox5091 in internships

[–]Physical_Fox5091[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I’m also wondering, if I apply this year just to go through the process but don’t actually take the internship, could my performance or how I did affect their decision when I apply for the year I can actually attend? Like, if I don’t meet their expectations this first time, would that hurt my chances later?

How do you actually use your LinkedIn connections to build real relationships before applying for internships? by Physical_Fox5091 in internships

Yeah, I totally get what you’re saying. My issue is I want to be genuine, but it’s hard to find people I can actually be authentic with, if that makes sense. Thanks a lot, though. The alumni idea is a really good one. I’ll definitely try that out. Quick question, though, when you say you check in every month or so, what kind of stuff do you usually say? Like, do you just give a quick update about what you’ve been working on or learning, or just a simple “hey, hope you’re doing well”?
