[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the field. Finance (and I believe consulting) applications go in the fall and the kids know by winter break generally if they have any bites. But more policy oriented ones don’t go in until December and they hear in March. Then I think the smaller nonprofit, university based internships etc can be picked up anytime along the way. I hate that the kids have so much stress about this! [b]it’s great to have a meaningful summer internship, especially if it turns into a job after graduation, but it’s certainly not a requirement for a successful adult life and I know they put so much pressure on themselves[/b]. Hope your kid finds his way through it. [/quote] If you don't secure a summer internship there are other ways to beef up your resume -- on campus internships, research experiences, major class projects especially capstone classes that give real-world-style experience.
