Preparing for The Internship Course

HMGT students working towards their BTech degree are required to complete the internship course. Watch this video which shares information about preparing for the internship requirement.

“When looking for an internship I recommend for you to be professional (it should always be that way). Include your resume in the email because they may ask for it. To find internships use Handshake, the job search on Google, the website where you plan to do your internship, or ask your classmates and professors.

Be patient. I applied to more than 5 hotels and only one replied to me. And guess what? They approved my internship. Good luck!” 

Laurel Polanco, HMGT Student
