Hi I am really interested in traveling to different places to do internships.
Do any of you know any good places to go and how to go about to search for them?
I look online but I don't know which ones are legit or reliable.
Also, if anyone has gone to another state or country for internships, how did you plan it?
Room/Board? Money? etc....also where did you go? and how does the process go?
Thanks!!! biggrin.gif

The best place to go is located on your CAMPUS!
Go to the Career Center. This is the place to help you find On/Off-Campus Jobs, Work/Non-Work Study Jobs, Campus/Off-Campus Sponsored Internships and to help you build your resume and find your career.
Career Centers also have job fairs once in awhile, which is definitely HIGHLY recommended, especially when the economy is horrible, like now.

Take advantage of your Campus Units, especially if there's a Career Center. Personally go to the Center yourself and tell them what you're interested and they should find ways to help you find an internship that meets your needs and wants! Don't do it the lazy way by trying to find something online because something you might find could be a "SCAM". I almost got scammed into a "fake" job when I was on a serious job hunt sad.gif Siggghhh. So at least when you do it through your Career Center, you know it's legit.
