Don’t have an internship yet? Don’t worry!

Summer internships are strongly encouraged in college and are a great way to boost your resume. They are a great way to gain skills in your area of interest and network in the agriculture industry. The internship application and interview season starts in October and runs until about March. The Purdue College of Ag career fair is one of the largest career fairs and is a great way to start the internship hunt. Most people I have talked to have had an internship for months, but here I am, still looking. I have the opportunity to go on a two-week study abroad trip in May, cutting my internship time short. This has caused a few problems while applying and interviewing for internships, but I still have many options. There are still tons of internships available, and Jane is great about keeping the undergrads informed about internship openings. If you don’t get an internship when all of your peers do, don’t panic. You have plenty of time to find an internship perfect for you!
