Hey Nicole!

I worked in the biology lab prepping materials for microbiology courses as an undergraduate. I also assisted my microbiology professor in his research after I completed my microbiology course, which was amazing experience! I graduated college over 5 years ago and I still use my microbiology professor as a reference because of the strong relationship we had.

Once you start, you can ask your microbiology professor how they prepare their media and supplies for class and if they need help. I would also become very friendly with your microbiology professor and study hard in microbiology. They will notice all the effort your making and want to assist you in any way possible.

Hi Nicole. I would recommend you start by checking with your schools career services department. They may be able to provide you with some leads on companies in the area that are actively searching for interns. That is how I found my first internship years ago. You could also do some online research on local labs and check out their careers section. Even if you do not see a job posting specifically looking for interns, there are often times that the site will let you upload a general resume and indicate what types of positions you are interested in so that they have a copy on file in case something comes up that you are a good fit for. A third thing I would recommend is seek out volunteer opportunities related to biology. In some cases volunteering can lead to a job as a paid intern or potentially as a full-time staff member. Lastly, you could attend job fairs at local companies. That will help you in two ways: 1) You'll get your name out there with multiple companies. 2)You'll learn more about the companies in your area and what kind of things they are looking for when hiring people. That will help you understand what skills you need to develop and strengthen as you progress through your studies.
