What is a Daily Internship?

As long as there are vacancies for internship positions, companies will recruit, and the recruitment time depends on the business situation or year-round recruitment.

The requirements are relatively low, the degree of urgency is high, and some do not need to be in full attendance, and they can be on duty 3-5 days a week. For students whose academic background and resume are not very outstanding, it is an opportunity to pick up leaks, and the threshold is not so high.

The daily internship requires a long internship cycle, generally three months or more and as soon as possible, and the recruitment target is generally college students, which is suitable for students to learn and enrich their project practice experience.

Although most of the daily internships did not become regular HC, it was also beneficial for me to choose a career in the future.

What is a Summer Internship?

Summer internship companies basically require interns to be full-time, the internship cycle is 2-3 months, the recruitment process is perfect, and it is generally a complete recruitment project of the enterprise.

The summer internship of large factories has a high conversion rate, and the difficulty is also the same as the difficulty of autumn recruitment, which can be regarded as early approval of autumn recruitment. The company will give the interns a chance to become a regular defense, and the summer interns with good performance can be transferred to the school and get an offer after passing the assessment.

There is no conflict between the early approval of summer internship or autumn recruitment and the formal approval of autumn recruitment, which is equivalent to one more opportunity to apply. For juniors and sophomores, it can be regarded as an opportunity to overtake in a corner.

Some summer internship positions will be launched at the same time as spring recruitment, and the recruitment time is about March to June every year. The recruitment target is generally the students recruited by the school in the current year, for example, in 2024, fresh graduates who will graduate in 25 years.

It is highly recommended that you participate in summer internships, I don't know if you have heard a sentence, half of the positions in famous companies are given summer internships, this sentence is not an exaggeration at all.

Summer internships not only have a high conversion rate, some companies can reach about 50%, in addition, its number of applicants is only less than half of the school recruitment.

Why do you have to do a summer internship?

1️⃣, the school recruitment is approved in advance, and the gold content is high.

2️⃣. The number of applicants is small, and the probability of becoming a regular is high.

3️⃣. Familiar with the whole process of recruitment and improve efficiency.

The biggest mistake of college students looking for a job is to delay until graduation to start looking for a job, and the correct time to find a job should be in the second semester of the junior year or the second semester of the second year of graduate school.

Well-known companies will have summer internship programs, and the summer internship program is aimed at students in the third year or second year of graduate school. The value of this type of internship is very high, and the salary of summer internship is far higher than that of daily internship.

Taking a step back, even if the application for a summer internship is not approved, it will not affect the application for autumn recruitment in July and August.

Summer internship = a real simulation before the school recruitment, which is equivalent to a comprehensive rehearsal of the school recruitment process, and the school recruitment will be more likely to find a good job. This process is also a good litmus test to test your current competitiveness to some extent.

The delivery method of summer internship and school recruitment is also the same, and the process is roughly the same.

(1) Resume writing

If your resume is an argumentative essay, the argument of this argumentative essay is your job search. Throughout the resume, we need to have the same awareness of the argument as we do when writing an essay. Why am I qualified for this job, and what are my strengths?
