42 Internships: all masters programs Nothing beats the firsthand experience of on-the- job training. Explore your options and maximize your employability by choosing to take an internship in place of one elective in the summer. An essential part of your degree Internships provide a transformational opportunity to get on-the-ground job experience and skilling in an international work setting. Beyond loading your resume with new capabilities, you have the opportunity to demonstrate international work experience in your new career; build a network of work-related relationships; and, in many cases, land a permanent job by impressing your employer. Doing an internship is essential for anyone looking to make a major post-graduation change in work or location; internships accelerate your path to market and in many cases are the “make or break” factor in landing an international job. You can choose to take an approved internship in place of an elective. Your Career Development team will help you network and prepare for your internship. Note: Internship eligibility is dependent on campus-specific visa rules. STUDENT PROFILE Aman Chheda Indian Business Analyst Way Dual Degree: Masters in International Business, Masters in International Marketing Class of 2017 How did you prepare for your internship? During our time on campus, we realized that networking is the key. Participation is encouraged and nothing positive will happen unless you open up. I had the chance to work with two wonderful careers advisors from the team at Hult. They challenged my way of thinking and provided me with better solutions. Their guidance was key to me nailing the interview for my internship.
