Why are internships important?
According to a survey conducted by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), nearly 50% of employers would like to see an internship on a student’s resume.
An internship gives a student an opportunity to “audition” a job. It gives students the chance to ask themselves, ”Do I see myself working in this industry?”
The experience of obtaining the internship itself is part of the value of the experience.
