[quote=Anonymous]As a professor who writes letters of recommendations for internships, I really, really value students who worked at paid jobs like scooping ice cream as opposed to fancy (unpaid) internships or interesting classes abroad that their parents were able to afford. Unpaid internships are oftentimes only possible for students who come from privilege and whose parents are willing to support their children financially over the summer. That being said, if your daughter can do something in addition to paid work that aligns with possible professional interests, I would encourage her to do so.[/quote]
