Tips: Securing a Summer Internship
1. If you don't have a lot of professional experience, play up your relevant course work, volunteer and civic involvement, and leadership roles on your resume.
2. Research internship opportunities at companies you would like to work for in the future -- often these programs are structured to help companies identify potential talent.
3. Stay organized.  Keep track of application deadlines and write down all of the positions you apply for so you can follow up at appropriate times.
4. Tap into your alumni network to see if graduates of your university are currently working at places you're interested in interning. Don't be afraid to reach out to them and see if they have advice as you're applying.
5. Clean up your social media accounts or make them private.
6. Include sample course work or other relevant materials with your application to demonstrate your experience.
7. Think ahead – if you have missed an application deadline this year, write it down so you can remember to apply on time next year.
