[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it would depend, OP. I've had career changing interns in the past and they often did not take constructive criticism as well as their younger peers and were more resistant or set in their ways. Some were visibly uncomfortable reporting to me as well as I was around their age, sometimes younger.[/quote] Sorry, submitted too soon. THAT being said, you seem to have a very positive attitude so in your case I would probably hire you if you made it through HR. Here is another key, OP: if you network it becomes much easier to gain internships or employment. I met a young woman recently at a reception and determined that I wanted her as an intern so we completely bypassed the whole HR thing. Great for both of us because I know that HR would not have brought her in for an interview as she lacked the set credentials that they typically seek.[/quote]
