The Internship Advice Video I Wish I'd Seen (+ free CV and Cover Letter Example!)

How to get an internship and get the most out of it. Outperform, smash your deadlines and effectively network! + how to write a good cv/resume and how to write a good cover letter! Enjoy templates of my own resources below. This summer I secured an internship in Tokyo at the intersection of science education and social media marketing (so exciting!). Though this was cancelled due to COVID, I ended up doing a remote 10-week, ~30 hour/week marketing internship with a team in San Francisco. I am not pretending to be the best intern (much to still learn...), but I am keen to share what I've already found. I hope it helps someone! Good luck on your professional journey.

I was caught in that awkward space between being our family's child, but being an adult who doesn't relate to those kids... However, it was so much fun! I was fascinated that these kids owned phones from age 5, spent half their time on TikTok, and viewed everything in the restaurant through the beautiful lens of being a child. So refreshing. Maybe I don't need to hang out with the adults yet. Song I'm enjoying: Pressure Love by Safario What are YOU grateful for today?
