Internship Presentations

Don't forget, if you had an internship last semester or have one this semester you need to present your experience during a town hall meeting. Being able to present on your internship really allows you to look back and see what worked for you and what didn't. The whole point behind internships is for you to get insight into whether or not you want to pursue a specific career after you're done with MCAD.

There's a lot you can you talk about too. Whether or not you got paid can make a huge difference in how well you're utilized within the company. The specific position could be completely different from what you expected it to be or it could be spot on. Even the size of the company you work for has an impact on the final result. The biggest thing for me in the internship / externship presentations is the group dynamic within the company. How well you were able to adapt to the office politics of where you worked; some places are really relaxed and promote comradery while others focus on the individual. Tell your story and you will be fine.
