Using International Internships to Build Your Resume?
International internships are one of the best ways imaginable for you to build up your resume. While they are very competitive, the fact is that they can definitely make you look exceptional to future employers if you are able to get one. If you are thinking about looking into international internships, there are a couple different routes that you can take to reach your goal. These routes generally boil down to two major categories: paid and unpaid international internships. There is a lot of room for movement within these major categories, but these are the basic definitions. First, there are the paid international internships. These are often some of the most competitive internships that you will ever be able to find, and they fill up quickly. While these internships generally only take the best students, don't feel like you're unable to qualify if you have a less than stellar academic record. Many times, students with lower GPAs can get into some great internships because they have a compelling life story, or their personality simply clicks with the way things are done around that specific business. You will never know if you don't apply, so try to apply for at least a few of these highly prized internships. Unpaid internships generally provide you with some form of compensation, though it is not financial in this case. Unpaid internships will often offer you class credit for the work you do, or perhaps a living stipend to help you pay for your expenses while you're working for the company. Whatever your compensation package is, these internships are very revered for what they say about you on your resume. These are the types of internships that most international students will find themselves qualifying for. Whichever direction you decide to point your search, you are bound to find an internship that offers you what you want if you search long enough. Remember that a great GPA isn't all you need to get into the higher level international internships. Often, a great personality and a demonstrated passion for your work will be more than enough to get you into great international internships.
