Finding a Summer Job
You can never start looking for a summer job or internship too early. It takes a lot of time, research and planning.
The first step is to find a field of work that interests you. To figure out what you are interested in you can start by answering a few basic questions:
· What am I really interested in?
· Do I want to use this time for career related experience, just for fun, or just for cash?
· How much money do I need/want/am capable of making?
· How much time (weeks, hours, days) do I want to work?
Once you have answered these questions you can narrow down your search and move onto the next step which is to research prospective employers. Research will help you identify jobs that you are interested in applying for and will help you to prepare for your interview.
Next you should start writing your resume and cover letter. This is an extremely important part of the process as your resume is what will get you an interview. Your personal Zinch profile is also a ready-made resume that you can share with employers to show off your accomplishments and work experience.
Next you must prepare for and schedule interviews. Interviews are a great way to reiterate your qualifications for the job and how your past and present experiences will help you with the position. Part of preparing for this will be done in the research portion by knowing about the company and about the potential job.
Finally, be sure to send a thank you note after the interview. In addition to it being a nice gesture, it will show the employer that you are still interested in the position and will help your interviewer to remember you. The note can either be hand written and delivered or simply emailed to the interviewer.
