Internship L-10

There are a number of different reasons for doing an internship. We have identified six reasons for participating in an internship. One: deciding if the career is the right one for you. Two: networking opportunities. Three: gain valuable work experience. Four: gain an edge in the job market. Five: transition into a job. Six: Gives you practical skills you can use in any work setting.

The first reason is to decide if the career you choose is right for.The majority of your life is going to be spent in the workforce. An average person will work the equivalent of 128 months (94,608 hours) of time in their career over their lifetime. You should spend that precious time doing something you enjoy. Participating in internships will help you find a career that best fits you, so you can spend that time actually enjoying what you are doing.

The second reason an internship is a good idea is an internship offers you the opportunity to network with those in your chosen career field. In the world of business, you don’t always get a job based on your credentials, a lot of the time you get a job because of who you know. How many times have you gotten a job just because you knew someone? Networking gives you an advantage in your career field because it helps you build relationships. Relationships with those people who can potentially help you get that “dream job”.

The third reason for participating in an internship is it gives you valuable work experience. Employers look for work experience. Graduate schools look for work experience. To get into Medical school its recommended you have 75 hours of job shadowing, 50 hours of patient contact, and 75-100 hours of community service. In the workplace experience is everything, and an internship helps provide that. Experience also builds confidence and employers value employees who are confident. The more confidence you display the more likely you are to be hired. The fact is, you are more likely to get the job if you have experience.

The forth reason, to gain an edge in the job market. Getting a job out of college is extremely competitive, graduates are finding it harder and harder to get a job in the field they graduated in. The job market has always been competitive, and with the economy the way it is, it’s harder than ever. The good news?“Employers report that 62.5% of their hires had internship experience” in a competitive job market that will give you the competitive edge you need to succeed.

The fifth reason, an internship helps you transition into a job. Many companies offer in company internships that will set you up for a job with that company once your internship is over. The benefit here is obvious; you learn the job, network with employers and then get a job at the place you interned at. It’s a foot in the door for the dream career you always wanted! There’s benefits for an internship as well, “46.2% of employers offer a higher starting salary to those who have internship experience.” An internship will help you both get a job you want and have a higher salary at that job.

The last reason, internships help you learn the skills you need to succeed. No matter what the outcome of your internship, it will teach you the skills you need to be successful in the business world. Employers look for skills like hard work, dedication, passion, adjustability, and people skills. An internship is a learning experience that will help you acquire and sharpen these skills. Most likely, you will be put out of your comfort zone when you participate in an internship. But through experience you will grow and progress and become a better person.

Alicia is a graphic arts student. She enjoys her class work and will graduate in one year with a bachelor's degree in Art and Visual Communications. She has been doing some freelance work for relatives and friends to earn a little extra money to pay for school and has a 30 hour a week job working as a legal secretary in a law office. She likes her job as a legal secretary but wants to use her graphic arts degree when she graduates. What advice would you give to Alicia regarding job search strategies? Where can she go for help? Do you think she will be able to get a graphic arts position after graduation from college?

As we discussed what would be best for Alicia we decided that she should use the network she already has as well as build up a larger network by doing an internship before she graduates to find job opportunities. We also suggested that she should post her work on a website and create a portfolio to take with her wherever she goes so that she can get her work out there and her skills noticed.

We found that she could search for jobs at:

· https://www.artjob.org/

· http://art.nmu.edu/department/AD_Career-Jobs.html

· http://jobs.artsearch.us/

A few job opportunities that we found for her were:

· New Media Designer: New York Public Library : New York, New York, United States

· Graphic Designer: The Art Institute of Chicago

Final Reflection Paper

Final Reflection Paper Jennifer Watson

CLSS 2100

Going into Career and Major exploration, I was fairly certain I was going to school at UVU for a Bachelor in Biology. I had been going to school now for five years with this plan being my main target and after my bachelor I would apply to a dental school. It seemed like a good plan, I have fifteen year experience in the dental field so why not? I chose to take this class because I needed a class to go with my chemistry class. I had to pick an online class to allow myself time to study a class I knew was going to be tough. Within the first week of this class I knew I was is the wrong major for me.

The second or third assignment was the Myers and Brigs test. I had never taken this test but I was blown away at how accurate it was on my personality. One thing that sticks out in my mind is something that was in the reading that week, (you may have interest in a topic and not have the aptitude for that particular topic). It was like a light going on in my head, it was that moment I realized I have interest in many topics that I don’t have the aptitude for. After taking that test and with the personality test, and getting of suggested career paths that might suit me, I felt extremely empowered. Among the careers and interest my dental career was listed but there were also so many more careers that were such a natural fit for me that I couldn’t believe I did not consider them before.

The first thing you see when you go into my blog is a picture of my husband and I when the Daily Harold did a story about us. My husband completed his Fiftieth marathon and I my twenty fifth. The first thing you read in anything about myself is how I love to run or exercise and among the huge list of careers I was given to consider was several careers in exercise science, Physical therapy, and Physical education. The very next assignment was to declare a major and all the steps that go along with it, so I did, Exercise science outdoor recreation. It was a very good fit seeing as all the prerequisites for Exercise science are the same as biology.

I am only missing two classes that I need, and they are human anatomy and physiology. When it was time to pick classes for the spring semester I enrolled in both. Next fall my baby will be going to school full time and so will I, my next step after my exercise science degree I think I will set my sights to the P.T. program. My Son will be getting home from a mission when I get into the program and he will be doing the P.T. program as well. I would love to start a practice where we would work together.

Things I love to do

Things I love to do

1-Play with my family.

2-compete in races.

3-Learn

4-Socialize with lots of people, make new friends every day.

5-Help my friends in need.

The values that are reflected in these actions and hobbies are first, my family is the most important thing in my life so loyalty and love to my family.

Second, my family is not just the blood relations. This is extended to my close friends who I think is a quality or value of love for my fellow man. This is what I think helping my friend in need represents.

Third and fourth, I love to meet lots of new people and that is where my love of running comes from. I love to network and be able to touch lots of people’s lives. I’m not sure that is a value but I do love people. I think the value, my running best represents is goal minded and determined. I love having goals and working hard for what I want, in addition to reaching my goals I love to celebrate my success and drag anyone willing to come along with me to try something they never thought they could do.

Fifth, I love to learn. I don’t care what it is, from changing a tire to dental surgery to how my husband’s mind works. I think the love of learning and helping and fixing or trying to fix things to make a difference is a value, even though I’m not sure what it would be called.

I hope when I choose a career I can include all of these values. This is what makes me most happy and if I get to exercise them every day my career and life will be awesome! Now if I could just find one that encompasses all of them, any suggestions?

Career Fair

Career fair/ Recruiting Day

November, 7 Hall of Flags Jennifer Watson

· I was finally able to attend a career fair, if that is what is was. I wish I had been able to the big career fair the school had put on but unfortunately I missed it. There were only about a dozen or so employers in attendance most of which were jobs that required little to no education. The jobs were mostly sales or survey takers, jobs that I tried to stay away from since I was sixteen. The only employer I semi-considered was Sundance ski resort, even though you needed only the bare minimum education and skills, they did give free skiing to their employees.

Five questions for Sundance

· This company offers winter employment in either the lifts or there restaurants, with the possibility of getting me through the front door to ski instruct and eventually with my degree in outdoor recreation, a pretty cool career with in of Utah’s top ski resorts.

· The kind of personality type they are looking for is outgoing, good in sales, people skills, knowledge of hoe to ski.

· The company offers internships on a needed basis, meaning if the need arises in a particular department they consider the need. According to the employment specialist a few interns are there at this time (chief and HR).

· I might consider the lift operator position just because of the free skiing for my family and possibly to network.

· The top five skills this company is looking for are people who are good with customer service, reliable, team oriented, experience, and quick to catch on.

1- Team work

I worked in a dental office for five years; mostly I worked with the dentist and the office manager. For the most part I worked in the back with the dentist and the office manager in the front with the billing. I would set up the operatory for patents and assist the dentist on the patents. Most of the time things ran really smooth and the patents were evenly apart, occasionally the office manager would come back to the Dr. Ormsbey and me with news of an emergency. A woman with a broken tooth, a man with a tooth ache, or a child who climbed up a slide, fell and cracked his permanent teeth and could we please find room to fit them in. Of course we could! We would skip lunch, everyone sharing in the duties of cleaning and setting up new rooms, even Dr. Ormsbey would be back with me cleaning the rooms or the interments the whole time through or lunch hour. Some days we would not catch up till way after it was time to go home and none of us would leave until we all had our work done; it was like family, that’s real team work.

2-Major challenge

The dentist I worked for Dr. Sergeant sold his practice I was working in to move down to St George to be closer to his Mother after his Father had passed away. I had been working with him for about three years and he is an amazing guy so naturally I was devastated, we all were the Hygienist and the office manager as well. The doctor asked us if we would stay with the practice to oversee the move because he would be able to get more for the practice if the staff would stay in order to help the patients feel more comfortable. The other two girls, the office manager and the hygienist said no, they stayed as long as they did because they liked him so much but with a new Doctor they would have no reason to stay. I felt a little nervous to stay when I did not know the Doctor and he was bringing his old staff with him but I stayed to help the transition go more smoothly for our patients who I had come to know very well and love. I called each one over the next six months and assured them the new Doctor was great and they would love him. I was able to bring over 80% of Dr. Sergeants patients to the new Doctor and make Doctor Sergeant’s practice worth every penny the new Doctor paid for it.

3-Past Goal

After the birth of my last child I found myself 80 lbs. heavier then I was before I had children. My husband had been running marathon for ten years and I really wanted to run one. I knew I was too heavy but sure if I trained I could do one, after all if he could do it! LOL; I started my training and I was diligent, unfortunately I was plagued with stress fractures. Every time I would get in a good routine I would end up with one, it was the most frustrating thing. After about nine months of training and seventy pounds I ran my first marathon! I would love to say it went smooth but no, I felt pain in my left femur at mile 15 or so but I thought it was just spot pain. By mile 19 I felt my leg snap and told my husband I think my leg just broke. He said it was just spot pain and like a good wife believed him. The next seven mile were extremely painful and slow going ,that seven miles took me over two hours to complete, barely getting us in the required time of six hours, 5:58:58. I made it though! That day we found out I did break my leg and my husband still feels bad about that, this was over seven years ago and now I have completed 32 marathons and my times are much faster.

Elevator Speech

I’m Jennifer Watson, I attended UVU as a third year sophomore. I am working on a exercise science out-door recreation bachelor degree and have a two year degree in science. I love life and being active, I am a very high energy person and love to be doing many things at the same time. I am goal oriented and work hard to get the task at hand accomplished. I’m passionate about relationships with others and work hard on them. I love to learn and I am always trying and doing new things. I have learned many things in Career fitness including, internships are an essential part of everyone’s education, employers are not allowed to ask you much about your family life, how to make a resume other than a time line resume, and a lot more about myself than I ever new.

Mock interview

Mock interview Jennifer Watson

12-5-2011

My interview was with Sue Stephenson MPA CEIP CPRW, I’m not sure what all the letters behind her name stands for. She is a career counselor and is over the sciences, this had to be the most useful part about this interview, this is great because she is over my degree and in my opinion it will be good to know her because she will be helping me in my future academic career. The most difficult question she asked me where my husband and I met. We had gotten off topic and that is where the conversation ended up. With my hesitation she apologized and said don’t answer that. I know I would never have to answer a question like that in a real interview so I didn’t feel bad about not answering. The reason I didn’t want to answer it is because it’s kind of a crazy story. The most important piece of advice I would give another person interviewing is, you get your interview based off of your education and credentials, you get the job based off of your personality and fit for the company, so be yourself. Three things I learned during this mock interview are it doesn’t matter if the interviewer is on time but you better be! Don’t be nervous, if you can help it and dress-up even if you’re afraid you will look to dressed up, you will be noticed more if you look the part. The three things I would like to improve on my next interview are, have my resume on hand even if you mailed it or faxed it earlier, have an extra one. I also wish I had remembered her name so I could have walked in and said hello by name, might not seem important but it is to me. I would also do a little background cheek to know what I was in for, I felt unprepared and unsure about what I was going to talk about.

Setting goals

When I think about setting goals I can't help but look over at my journal. I know that my most important long tern goals are in side that book by my bed. I revisit them often as to remind myself of my "why", why am I doing this and refocus if I get a little side tracked or frustrated.

Three things I have learned about setting goals

1-Always write them down.

2-share them with lots of people, it help you to be accountable for them.

3-Make sure they are realistic but not to easy.

I Love to exercise and I love being around people, I started as a aerobics instructor and when the

job opened up for assistant director it was a natural next step.

Anyone can get a job as a instructor as long as you take a short course to be an instructor, it’s a

good way to get your name out and get noticed.

4- What are the various jobs in this field or organization?

There are so many from instructor to director of parks and recreation.

5- Why did you decide to work for this company?

Honestly it was convenient at the time but it is great to work for the city and get all the benefits

that come along with it.

great part.

Not every day is exciting but it is always interesting. There is always something going on in our

Community.

Jennifer Watson

Clss2100

Questions

· Are you working in the job/ using your major?

Answer- Yes, I started out teaching fitness classes.

Answer-Like I stated I started at the beginning doing classes, now I am personal fitness trainer.

Answer-Less than a hour a week is spent at home preparing and I spend about 4-6 hours a day at work.

· Do you wish you had done something different with your major?

Answer-No! I am 100% satisfied with my chose. I have the potential to run one of the new facilities when one opens up so lots of room for advancements.

· How did you get your first job?

Answer-I just walked in and asked if they needed me and they said yes, no paper work or application or anything.

· What other options did you consider?

Answer- I wanted to have a boot camp or something like that, I may still.

· What is this work environment like?

Answer-So relaxed and social, everyone is there to better them self’s so it is full of positive people.

· What advice would you give me, that you wish someone would have told you?

Answer-Although certifications are extremely important and you should get as many as you can, remember employers want experience so work as much internship as you possibly can.

This assignment has been a very good experience for me. I kind of knew what a internship was but never thought that I would do one. Now though I have applied for a couple and I’m very excited to try some new careers out. I had never thought about public speaking but I ran across a internship were I would be helping an outreach program speaking and helping at risk youth with health and fitness. I am so excited! I found the application in one of the web sites in the reading. I think this activity has opened my options to another major I had not previously thought of, but I think I would be really good at and I would love to be a public speaker. I actually have a very unique back ground and would love to share it.

I also went to the Ranger station at Timp cave and talked to the manager over the internships for the Timp cave and the parks, she told me they will be doing hiring in January for the Summer of 2012. They have a internship program. I had no idea there was a internship program for everything.

Assessments Review Sheet Jennifer Watson

CLSS 2100 10-08-11

MBTI Report

My MBTI is ENTP, Extraverted Intuition with Thinking.

With my personality type my preferred tasks are, Developing strategy, recognizing multiple opportunities in the environment and selling others on new ideas and opportunities. My preferred work environments are fast pace high energy atmosphere. I thrive in autonomy and the freedom to think differently.

I looked at the top fifty in-demand jobs listed in the link career builder and the one I would like to look into a career in Physical therapy. I think this career path would suit me very well if I could modify it just a bit. I know I love to work with people and have to be moving all the time so this would fit me great.

SII Report

According to my SII report “Strong Interest Inventory” My top five interest are Medical Science-very high, Athletics-very high, Military-very high, healthcare services-high and Religion and Spirituality-high. Some of the Occupation I scored the highest on and that I would like to look into are Respiratory therapist, Physical Therapist, Parks and recreation, Advertising and I would like to look into some of the Culinary classes.

My Personal Style Scale says I like working with people, the careers I want to pursue are ones that work with or around others. I like to learn by doing and through lectures and books. This has been clear to me because of my work as a Dental Assistant, I knew that’s what I wanted so I called Dentist and asked them to train me. I really think I could do a crown prep with what I learned chair side. I lead by taking charge and enjoy being part of a team. I seem to be higher than average risk taker I know this because my reviewer made a point of this fact. I think this would go very well with some of my career choices in almost everyone I would be able to fulfill most aspects of my personality.
