大學(xué)實(shí)習(xí)要趁早
|
????當(dāng)下，要想在畢業(yè)之后找到一份好工作，必須提早開(kāi)始準(zhǔn)備。華盛頓特區(qū)獵頭公司Ready Set Launch的負(fù)責(zé)人賈恩·萊文認(rèn)為：“求職應(yīng)該從大學(xué)一年級(jí)的暑期實(shí)習(xí)開(kāi)始。成功的實(shí)習(xí)經(jīng)歷是招聘經(jīng)理最為關(guān)注的一點(diǎn)。” ????要想在來(lái)年暑假找到一個(gè)發(fā)揮自己才能的地方，不妨查看一下求職網(wǎng)站Vault.com。這家網(wǎng)站按照社交機(jī)會(huì)、培訓(xùn)和以往實(shí)習(xí)生的滿(mǎn)意度等因素，列出了最新的實(shí)習(xí)崗位。這些實(shí)習(xí)工作能夠?yàn)閷W(xué)生們提供積累實(shí)踐經(jīng)驗(yàn)的寶貴機(jī)會(huì)。而且，實(shí)習(xí)崗位的排名還會(huì)參考豐厚的福利待遇指標(biāo)，比如免費(fèi)旅行、住宿和健身房會(huì)員等。 ????其中，評(píng)價(jià)最高的實(shí)習(xí)計(jì)劃包括貝恩公司（Bain & Company）、尼克羅迪恩動(dòng)畫(huà)工作室（Nickelodeon Animation Studios）、西南航空（Southwest Airlines）、高盛（Goldman Sachs）、西北互助人壽公司（Northwestern Mutual）和史密森尼學(xué)會(huì)（The Smithsonian Institute）。Vault.com副總裁塔拉·麥克弗雷稱(chēng)：“實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)最好的地方就在于，它不限于任何特定行業(yè)或職業(yè)。不論是重量級(jí)的金融公司、頗有名望的職業(yè)服務(wù)公司、技術(shù)公司、劇院、博物館、動(dòng)物園、出版公司、非營(yíng)利機(jī)構(gòu)等等，機(jī)會(huì)無(wú)處不在。” ????而排名靠前的實(shí)習(xí)計(jì)劃接受的應(yīng)征人數(shù)有限，所以，廣撒漁網(wǎng)，申請(qǐng)盡可能多的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)才是明智的做法。那么，究竟應(yīng)該從哪里著手？接著往下讀： ????學(xué)校的就業(yè)服務(wù)辦公室。聽(tīng)起來(lái)似乎是理所當(dāng)然的事情，但意外的是，許多學(xué)生卻忽略了這個(gè)資源。波士頓大學(xué)管理學(xué)院（Boston University's School of Management）本科生職業(yè)顧問(wèn)黛博拉·費(fèi)德里科說(shuō)：“這里應(yīng)該是你最先尋求幫助的地方。搞清楚他們有沒(méi)有在線(xiàn)或打印形式的實(shí)習(xí)數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)。不僅是因?yàn)閺倪@里求職的學(xué)生比實(shí)習(xí)工作求職網(wǎng)站相對(duì)要少得多，同時(shí)還因?yàn)樵谶@里發(fā)布招聘的公司確實(shí)是打算在你的學(xué)校尋找合適的實(shí)習(xí)生。” ????在線(xiàn)實(shí)習(xí)數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)。費(fèi)德里科最喜歡的網(wǎng)站是Simply Hired，因?yàn)檫@家網(wǎng)站支持實(shí)習(xí)生們按照地理位置進(jìn)行搜索。她說(shuō)：“實(shí)習(xí)生們可以進(jìn)行多重搜索，還可以訂閱每日郵件提醒，包括與搜索標(biāo)準(zhǔn)匹配的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)。或者，求職者可以按公司名稱(chēng)，有針對(duì)性地搜索自己最中意的公司提供的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)。” ????分類(lèi)廣告網(wǎng)站Craigslist。費(fèi)德里科說(shuō)：“沒(méi)錯(cuò)，就是Craigslist。雖然這個(gè)網(wǎng)站上的許多海報(bào)都不夠完善，但學(xué)生們經(jīng)常能從上面找到不錯(cuò)的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)，尤其是規(guī)模較小的公司提供的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)。” ????充分利用親戚朋友構(gòu)成的關(guān)系網(wǎng)。費(fèi)德里科說(shuō)：“通過(guò)鄰居、親戚，甚至好友的父母，我的許多學(xué)生都找到了很好的實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)。”首先從與他們交流開(kāi)始，然后再向外拓展，聯(lián)系你就讀大學(xué)的校友。 |
????These days, landing a good job after graduation starts earlier than ever. "Your job hunt has to begin in your freshman year, with that first summer internship," says Jason Levin, head of Washington, D.C., executive coaching firm Ready Set Launch. "Success as an intern is the No. 1 thing hiring managers look for." ????One way to find a place to shine next summer: Check out career site Vault.com's latest?list?of top internships, which profiles the best places for students to gain real-world experience, ranked by factors like networking opportunities, training, and past interns' satisfaction. The rankings also take into account great perks like free travel, housing, and gym memberships. ????Among those offering the highest-rated programs are Bain & Company, Nickelodeon Animation Studios (VIA), Southwest Airlines (LUV), Goldman Sachs (GS), Northwestern Mutual, and the Smithsonian Institute. "The great thing about internships is that they aren't limited to any particular industry or role," notes Tara McCaffrey, a Vault.com vice president, "There are opportunities at finance heavy hitters, prestigious professional services firms, technology companies, theatres, museums, zoos, publishing companies, nonprofits, and everywhere in between." ????The top-rated programs accept only a very limited number of candidates, so it's smart to cast a wide net and apply for as many internships as possible. Here's where else to start looking: ????Your school's career services office.?This might seem like a no-brainer, but a surprising number of students overlook it. "This should be your first stop," says Deborah Federico, an undergraduate career counselor at Boston University's School of Management. "Find out if they have either an online or print database of internships. Not only will the pool of applicants be relatively small, compared to internship search sites, but the companies posting openings are there because they want to find someone from your school." ????Online internship databases.?One of Federico's favorites is?Simply Hired, because it lets aspiring interns search by geographical location. "You can also set up multiple searches, get daily email alerts with any internship that matches your search criteria, or sort your search by company name to zero in on internships at your favorite companies," she says. ????Craigslist.?"Yes, Craiglist!," says Federico. "Despite the many sketchy posts on the site, lots of my students have found very good internships there, particularly at smaller companies." ????Your network of friends and relatives.?"Many of my students have found great internships through neighbors, aunts, uncles, cousins, and best friends' parents," Federico says. Start by talking with them, and then branch out into contacting alumni of your college. |
