Tips & Tricks for YOUR internship
Over the course of the internship program, we have asked students for their feedback and
things they wish they could have done differently to better succeed in their internship and in
this program. Below are some of the tips they shared with us:
Become self motivated and do work outside of the office Keep busy in free/ down time while on the job Take advantage of your position – ask a lot of questions and learn all
about the business Develop a good relationship with your supervisor - you never know
who else you could meet and what effect they could have on your fu-ture
MPRs are time consuming and cannot be done the night before Never be afraid to ask for help
Dress for Success
Mrs. Judy Dietert Assistant Chair Department of Management
DO’S DON’TS Neutral makeup Bright lipstick/makeup
Cleanly shaven Messy hair
Neutral colored clothing Sandals, open-toed shoes
Clean, trimmed fingernails Too much cologne/perfume
No club attire—heels no taller than two inches or chaotic patterns
*Every business is different, so be sure to research the com-
pany before your interview to ensure what is required of you.
