7 Best Tips to Act Like a Pro during Your
Internship
2
  • An internship is a bridge that transitions you
    into an entry-level job. As an intern, students
    can learn how to behave in a professional manner,
    how to build a network, and how to gain other
    experiences that will benefit you in the
    workforce.
  • If the student makes a favorable impression with
    the employer, then it is possible for that intern
    to get a job more quickly and easily compared to
    those without an internship background.
  • Here are 7 of the best tips to help you intern
    like a pro.

3
Do Your Homework
  • For the interview, you prepared extensively and
    performed well.
  • Now that you have the job, you still need to be
    ready for the next level.
  • Make sure to learn as much about the companys
    work culture and work strategies as possible to
    show that you are serious about your job.

4
Stay Away from Social Media
  • Keep your mobile device on silent mode and tucked
    away in your pocket or bag. Connect with your
    social networks only during lunch or work breaks.
    This shows your employer that you are focused on
    learning valuable work skills.

5
Be Active on the Job
  • Try to complete all youre work assignments on
    the same day with the time you are given.
  • This may require more research and hard work to
    make sure you are performing the job correctly
    and in the best time management mode as possible.
  • If necessary, keep a daily record of your work,
    and be available to stay late if needed. Being on
    time and making yourself available after normal
    hours will present a more favorable impression.

6
Show an Interest
  • Even though this is a temporary opportunity,
    treat it as a permanent job.
  • Treat your boss like a real boss and complete
    your work as accurately and as timely as
    possible.
  • This will help you elevate yourself and express
    your seriousness about a future with the company.

7
Learn New Things
  • As an intern, this is your learning period. So
    try to understand the work process and work
    skills involved. Ask questions now. Once you
    complete the internship, you will have lost the
    opportunity to learn more.
  • Dont only focus on the work completed on time.
    Try to learn how to do your job in a smart way.
    Be confident and dont be afraid to ask
    questions, especially from senior employees.

8
Find a Mentor
  • Try to find a senior employee who is willing to
    train you how to do the job well. Show your
    sincerity to the job, and impress him or her by
    following his or her advice correctly. Ask advice
    about future career opportunities.
  • He or she may even provide valuable job
    recommendations

9
Stay in Touch
  • Make sure to thank your boss and/or mentor for
    taking the time to train you. Keep a good rapport
    with them, and if they are willing to share
    contact information, keep in touch with them
    after your internship is over. Ask your boss for
    additional work if available, to gain more
    experience. Also, ask if you can use them as a
    work reference since they have seen how you
    handle yourself in a work environment and see if
    they will give you a reference letter as well.
  • Following these tips will help you act like a pro
    and make you stand out in your internship program
    and beyond.
