A company that you’ve interned with is likely to give you preference over a totally new candidate. There are firms that pay stipend to their interns, this is where you get paid for getting your professional development triggered. So, it’s not that you’ll be doing your internship for free.

4) Powerful Resume

Also, avoid making the 5 most common CV mistakes. Make sure that everything’s prim and proper – from the folder you use for carrying your documents to the outfit that you decide to wear on the day of your interview. Bingo, you are ready for the coveted showmanship!
