Students typically set up their own internships because this helps both you and the business mentor decide if the internship will be a good fit.

  • Talk to family, friends and neighbors who might have a contact. Talk to businesses in the community and explain that you are a student who is interested in pursuing a career in the field. Many people are open to help and want you to succeed.
