Looking to make the most of your summer break? Joining a training program could be your smartest move. Getting hands-on experience at private companies or government agencies gives you a real taste of what employers are looking for – both the technical skills and soft skills that’ll help you hit the ground running when you graduate.
We’ve put together a comprehensive list of summer scholarships and training programs from major players across different industries. Think of this as your roadmap to finding the perfect opportunity that matches your field of study and interests. But first…
GETTING READY TO APPLY-
#1- FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU WANT: Before you start firing off applications, take some time to think about what really interests you. Most students have several areas they’re curious about, which is totally normal. Don’t be afraid to apply to multiple programs – it’s actually smart. You’ll get to test drive different fields and see what clicks with you before you graduate.
#2- UPDATE YOUR RESUME: The little details in your resume can make or break your application. Despite the shift to digital filtering tools, your resume is still important in forming your first impression on employers. Keep it clean, straightforward, and professional – but don’t make it so short that you leave out important stuff. Pro tip: tailor your resume for each field you’re applying to. Going for a tech company? Make sure to highlight any tech-related projects or experience you have.
#3- DO YOUR HOMEWORK: Practice those interview skills. Whether you rehearse solo in front of a mirror or rope in a friend to help, get comfortable talking about yourself. And here’s something that’ll set you apart – research the company beforehand. Know their story, their values, what they do. It shows you’re genuinely interested, not just applying everywhere.
Here’s what’s out there this summer, broken down by industry.
