Intern Zoo
Time is running out for those of you who haven't landed a summer internship, yet. Luckily, there's a site that can help make your search much easier: It's called InternZoo.
InternZoo's purpose is to bring employers and candidates together for a quality internship experience on both sides. To help facilitate this end, they have advice for students and information for recruiters.
Writing a resume is tough. Writing your first resume probably seems like an impossible mission. It isn't. InternZoo's "Internships Advice" section lists the steps necessary to help any student learn how to write a winning resume and cover letter, what questions to expect from recruiters, and how to conduct a successful telephone interview. The only thing that isn't covered is the proper way to dress. That's simple. When you don't know the company's dress code, it's always better to err on the side of caution and dress as if you were about to interview for a job on Wall Street. A suit and tie always works well for men. A suit, tailored dress, or white blouse and knee-length skirt serves a woman well in any interview. Even if you know the company's dress code is business casual, it's still better to avoid wearing slacks to a face-to-face interview.
For recruiters, there's information about how to post to the site, what it costs, and even how InternZoo markets themselves to candidates.
As with a regular job search Web site, InternZoo has featured employers for students to consider. If you're still looking for a quality internship InternZoo is worth looking into.
