Hey everyone. I'm a sophomore in Electrical Engineering, and I just received an amazing internship with a major energy company, and I have a slightly abstract question to ask. How much is this internship going to help me when I'm looking for a job or applying to a good grad school (I plan on...

What kind of things can you that would look better than working at Mcdonalds all summer. Are there any jobs you can get that arent really internships but still look pretty descent on a resume?

Hi guys. I recently got into an internship where I would be doing research in bionanotechnology. My first problem is that I randomly applied for it, not knowing anything about bionanotechnolog. My second problem is the fact that I have not heard back from all of the other internships that I...

Hey guys, I have one more summer left before I graduate with a BSEE. I am about 99.9% certain that I want to go right to graduate school when I graduate. My question is: During the summer, should I take a few electives that I really want to take or should I focus on getting an internship...

I had my first real interview for a job (internship) exactly 3 weeks ago. I received a letter yesterday saying that I didn't get the internship, but I am really curious why I didn't get it. It seemed like I had all the qualifications they were looking for and a bit more. Is there any problem...
