Some goods tips we recently heard from Cal Poly:

Be prepared

"Make sure (your) résumé is the best presentation of (you) that it can be," Cal Poly says.

Students should also fine-tune their interview skills and have someone look over their cover letter and résumé.  The career counselors can help with interview techniques and what kinds of questions to ask.

Take advantage of job fairs


Most colleges have campus-wide job fairs every quarter, but specialized fairs are also available. For example, an Education, Government and Non-Profit job fair might be held. This will be particularly useful for students not majoring in engineering or business majors who are typically heavily represented at campus-wide job fairs.


Use faculty resources


Tell your professors that you're looking for an internship so they'll be sure to notify you if they hear anything. Otherwise they might never think to tell you about an opportunity that comes to their attention.

Also, when colleges send out e-mails about internships, read them. You never know what might be in them or what you could be missing out on, don't be so quick to send it to the trash.
