手把手教你把實(shí)習(xí)變成工作
1. Tell them what you want
If you are serious about turning your internship into afull-time position, present this from the very beginning – perhaps during yourfirst interview. If your employer is keen on the idea, then you’ve got yourselfan amazing internship and job opportunity. If not, and a full-time gig is yourultimate goal, this internship may not be right for you.
2. Interview them
Remember that you’re testing the water with this companyjust as much as they are testing you. Take advantage of the internship to seeif you can spot bad company culture before you get excited about workingfull-time. On the other hand, if you find that you love the workingenvironment, you’ll have all the more motivation to do your absolute best.
3. Write everything down
Take the initiative and, as previously described, track andupdate all of the milestones and tasks you complete as they are assigned andenter them in your journal or smartphone. At the end of the internship, thiswill come in handy when you make your case to become a full-time hire. Thistangible record will serve as both proof of the value you’ve added to thecompany and motivation for yourself to continue adding valuable accomplishmentsto the list throughout your internship. And… all this hard data and the successstories will help your resume/CV look amazing!
4. Be a sponge; remain positive
Your boss and co-workers realize you’re an intern, andyou’re not expected to know how to do everything that’s assigned to you. Takeadvantage of this short period in your life when it’s okay to ask questionsabout the basics. Absorb all of your surroundings. If you make a mistake, don’tlet it get you down. Stay positive, and remember that employers may judge youby how you react to the mistake… rather than the mistake itself.
5. Act like a full-time employee
Even though you may be the newest member of the team, beconfident in your abilities; cordially talk to everyone at the company likeyou’re here to stay. If you like the company culture, show it by immersingyourself in the company outings and socials. Small-talking with your co-workerswhile waiting in line for your morning coffee will slowly build relationships,and it’ll be nice to see their congratulatory smile when you hopefully tellthem the good news of your full-time hire.
6. Schedule a face-to-face
As you near the end of the internship period, schedule ameeting with your employer to talk about your performance and possibilities ofcontinuing your employment at the company. Bring your list of accomplishments,and show them exactly how you’ve proven yourself valuable.
7. Keep your connections
If you haven’t already, no matter what the outcome of yourinternship, make sure you keep in touch with all of the connections you’ve madeat this internship. Add everyone you’ve worked with and met on LinkedIn, andmake sure to send them a quick hello from time-to-time to keep the contactfresh.
8. Don’t rush any decisions
If you receive a full-time offer, remember you are notobligated to take the offer… or at least the first offer. If the company is nota good fit, be appreciative of the offer, but realize you can take yournewfound experience to a culture that better fits you… or perhaps hold out forthe next offer.
Be sure to research your market value by comparing salariesat various companies to similar job titles with your level of experience. Behonest and sincere about this – because if you counter-offer with a numberabove what you know you’re worth, you could lose the offer altogether.
Keep these tips in mind – and your next career transitionjust may be from intern to full-time employee.
