As the spring semester began to come to its end and me realizing that very soon I’ll need to start thinking about how I’m going to get work in my profession, I started looking for anything that’d help me improve my resume. At first, I felt anxious so I began applying to jobs that I wasn’t ready for or weren’t related to graphic design at all. I took a breathe and backtracked, and looking at the classes I had left before I had enough credits to graduate I saw the internship class.
Since I didn’t want to drown in work from having 7 classes, I decided I’d do my internship during the summer. Using handshake I applied to a couple that might’ve possibly accepted me. Only one gave me a shot, and that was Trill Mag, a non-profit online publication that supports upcoming Gen-Z writers on different topics such as lifestyle, entertainment, and more.
I felt proud of myself, thinking that I can now finally get the ball rolling in my career and get my life in order.
