How Interns Are Influenced By The Internship

I specifically chose this internship experience because previously, I held internships at Flood Law, a defense law firm, and the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office and I figured this internship is a progression. I was definitely interested in exploring the different areas in law to figure out what it is that I wanted and did not want to do and this internship, by far has helped me do that. This internship experience has shaped my career ambitions, as I will further go into detail during the duration of this paper, by allowing me to be exposed to the different areas of law, which then made me decide on what I found to be interested in and areas I did not so much

An internship can also heighten the awareness of community issues, motivates to create opportunities, embrace new ideas, and give direction to positive change. A successful internship can provide valuable information in making decisions about the direction of future studies or employment. An internship is an opportunity to not only use and develop industry-related knowledge and skills, but also to enhance some of the skills that are transferable to any professional work setting. For some people, the internship is the first introduction to the world of work. No matter where the skills and understanding of professionalism lie, internship is a chance to develop them even further.

As the internship program and the training intended, I have learned much related to my major, Criminal Justice. This internship helped me to acknowledge that qualified, knowledgeable professionals are needed by our complex society to define, administer, and put our rules and standards into force. Like jobs in any other field, to work in the field of law requires expertise. Trained experts are the most desirable to be hired by organizations, tasked to manage justice, to direct their operations. By writing articles for the legal website, I learned to assess law enforcement situations orderly. I learned to make use of the basic legal and management theories to analyze the situations. I got the opportunity to show my understanding of the key process in the U.S. criminal justice system. I also learned to combine approaches from management, law, and the behavioral science to apply them to the situations I was studying.

Students receive on-the-job experience prior to graduation, and the internship assists them in obtaining permanent employment. Facilities benefit from the opportunity to participate in and improve the formal education process. Quite often, students who complete professional practice experiences are later employed by the facility at which they completed the internship.

The internship was a channel to direct my passion for helping others; my supervisor assigned me numerous projects that involved communicating with community leaders. One project was a collaboration with the U.S. Probation Office to reduce recidivism, and it allowed me first hand encounter on how to create policies and procedures to promote community and individual growth. This insight has inspired me to attend law schools to influence legal policies. After the internship, I continued my involvement in the community outreach through the Nutmeg Big Brothers Big Sisters and The Females' Center of Excellence & Leadership, Inc. by mentoring at-risk youths and providing learning opportunities to the youths.

From since I was a young child I have always wanted to go into the field of Human Services. As I have grown I have decided that I would go into the Criminal Justice side of Human Services. By this I mean that I still want to help people, but I want to help people who have become criminals or who are on the path of becoming criminals. I especially want to help children and teens who have been in and out of a Juvenal Detention Center. From this passion I have decided that I want to go into one of three careers. These careers are as follows; Juvenile Defense Attorneys, Juvenile Counselor, or Juvenile Corrections Officer.

“Internships are essentially a form of work” which differ in terms of “qualification… and specific role that the intern is expected to fulfil” (Jeffery, Close, 23). Evidently, internships provide students with experience in professional careers while providing an understanding of the work through mentorships and careful supervision. Internships enable graduates in early evaluation and transition towards the specified career. Mainly, internships promote an early experience and training towards a chosen position through learning possibilities. Similarly, “For those students” figuring “their choice of major and career interest, an internship can help them to become aware of many… organizations” while “students who are clearer about their career interests… can help them apply what they are learning in ‘real world’ settings” (O'Neill). Ideally, internships portray different rationales in students’ career benefits. Internships provide students access to different experiences which expand the their choice of interest in fields that students do not necessarily decide partake in. Additionally, students are benefitting from the professional aid which is applicable to more vigorous demands of intellectual careers. Overall, graduates are provided with an early preparation and experience towards career

For example, one of the primary duties of this internship is to write direct examination of witnesses to be used in court. From experience competing with the University of Minnesota Mock Trial Association, I have compiled a number of direct examination and am very comfortable with this kind of work. This familiarity allows me to spend more time asking important questions about the work of an attorney and develop new skills rather than spend time learning how to do a new job. This paired with my genuine excitement towards the work that I will be doing will add to the productive environment and will overall make me a positive addition to the office. Finally, as this is the first time that the City Attorney’s office has offered an internship position to a university student, I will hopefully inspire the office to offer this position in the future so that more students from Manitowoc can explore the legal field through hands on experience and work to achieve their career

I was a little intimidated when presenting my CP because it was relatively early in the semester and was done before my original due date because Stephanie was ill. However, there really was no need to be nervous because I got so much great, positive feedback. My CP pertained to a gentleman who had been using drugs for 45 years and was getting ready to go back out into the world after a 28- day rehabilitation treatment program. One thing that I learned is that there were a couple of fellow students who had overcome addiction and trauma and they were very open and willing to share what they had gone through. They then related their own personal suggestions of other options that might help this particular patient. Many students agreed with myself

Last summer, I interned for one of Texas’s top personal injury law firms, The Ferguson Law Firm. There, I improved not only my legal research and writing skills, but also my speaking skills. In order to realize success, I spent numerous hours in conference rooms discussing court room strategy with firm partners. These skills are directly transferable to MassIT’s internship. If chosen to intern, I will both be able to and feel confident in advising management personal on changes that should be implemented within the office. Moreover, my legal research skills are interchangeable with the policy research skills needed to succeed. After years of research-intensive high school debate, I have become adept at compiling information on specific topics. Not only was that apparent within my legal research tasks, but it will be beneficial in researching different state practices for

During my internship at Allen & Gledhill, the aspect that stood out to me most was the willingness of my team with involving me in their ongoing deals and transactions. Often, this work was urgent or otherwise necessary to the client, and I felt that I learnt the most from experiencing a slice of what associates and partners of the firm deal with daily. This was a different approach from some of the other law firms I interned with, where I was often only given disparate pieces of research or work to do. I appreciate that Allen & Gledhill places utmost importance on exposing trainees to real work and I believe that I would benefit from this type of training. Furthermore, the firm’s increasingly regional approach provides aspiring lawyers like

During my practicum semester at East Carolina University (ECU), I began to search for internship sites for my final semester at ECU. During my search, I knew that I wanted to work with children and/or work in a hospital setting. I looked for sites in both North Carolina and Virginia, my home state. After serious considerations, I decided to move out of North Carolina and return to Virginia. I decided to complete my intern at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital in Behavioral Health (8B). Completing my internship at a local hospital in Virginia gave me a sense of pride; it was rewarding knowing that I worked with families within my community, Hampton Roads. SNG provided an opportunity that allowed me to experience working with patients that were

An employer gets to see an intern in action on a day to day basis. Did the intern show up for work on time, was the intern interested in the daily operations. Did the intern demonstrate proficiency in what they brought to the workplace and learn various new tasks easily, and did the intern show initiative to go above and beyond the call of duty.

Internships are great tools for determining future career paths. Without attending the internship that was required at my high school, I would not be sitting here, clicking on the keyboard, working hard to become a nurse. I believe that required internships for high school graduation is necessary because it is beneficial to student's academic success, future success, and broadens a student's perspective. However, while critics argue that internships may be a tool for students resume's to look good for college administrators, I argue that it can help a student determine what they want to do in their future before they pick their major in college because internships
