[quote=Anonymous]I had a (paid) internship in a particular field of engineering. These do exist, btw, even for HS students. People were nice. They loved doing what they did. It convinced me, however, that their work would be boring *for me*. I still went into engineering, but chose upper-level electives and such so I could get a job in R&D instead. A different intern the same place the same summer had the opposite reaction and later went to work at that place. A possible benefit to internship is learning whether one likes that sort of work. It won't be as crisp a decision for some as it was for me, but it could be helpful in selecting a career path. [/quote]
