| An Internship Access Card Opens Doors to Jobs (Photo credit: davidciani) |
I often receive notifications from companies and other organizations with updates on current intern opportunities just by registering my email with company job notification mailers, government agencies and industry newsletters. Internships are often nonpaying but the opportunities to promote and network yourself within a company while gaining real job experience is priceless.
The example below is an intern announcement I received on May 28th from the State Department notice the registration is for their spring 2013 session.
"We are pleased to inform you that we are now accepting applications for the U.S. Department of State's Spring 2013 Student Internship Program.
