Professional Internship Application Process

I am incredibly excited about starting my Professional Internship in less than two months, and I thought I would do a general post about my application experience for anyone who is interested or curious! I will start by saying that this process takes a lot longer than the DCP process, and it is much more competitive. 

When I was on my College Program, I went to a Professional Internships Application Panel. This was incredibly helpful as the PI recruiters went through each step of the process and gave so many invaluable tips. I referred to my notes from that panel many times throughout the application process and I was so glad that I had attended that session! The applications for Spring 2016 opened on August 25th. I applied for 6 different postings, but some of those postings included multiple positions within the application. As I learned from the panel, you are encouraged to apply for as many internships as you would like and are qualified for, but making sure they are all in the same fields is important to show focus within your interests.
