5. What advice would you pass on to future interns? What are the most important skills for a student to be successful at his/her internship? How could another student develop these skills prior to beginning internship?
Important advice I would give is to have an open mind because most of the time you won't get the internship you really wanted but you'll get something close. It's important to keep an open mind and actually try to enjoy it because you never know, you might actually like it.
I think its important going into internship with some sort of technology skill because most people think HTH they must be good at computer stuff and you'll get stuck doing things on the computer. I also think it's important to have communication skills because you will need to be able to talk to your mentor and you will have to ask questions. Its important to not be nervous or to be able to get over the nervousness. :)
You can develop these skills by practicing with photoshop word and other computer things. You can develop your communication skills by starting up convos with your cashier or talk to people in line. It would also help if you talked to people who are older like out of college so you can get used to speaking with someone who might be at your internship.
