Are there any internships out there that help you decide what you should work as?

Still very undecided about what I should major/ work as. Would appreciate any insight on internships that personally helped you decide your major/career.

Natasha’s Answer

It is hard to decide what you would like pursue full-time without having interned or at least talked to professionals from different areas. I would say that if you would like to figure out what is best suited for you, you should figure out what you are passionate about doing (is it technology related? is it being around a lot of people and not being in a lab? is it about writing in a newspaper/magazine?). What makes you most happy and what are you currently studying - is there one specific class that you are most interested in? Is there any extra curricular activities that you do that could turn into a potential job? All these questions will help you figure out what to do as an internship, and ultimately as a career.

Just remember that we do not all get it right from the first time - some internships you will love, some you will hate but hopefully this is all going to bring you closer to your dream job :)

Himmat’s Answer

I would give preference to volunteer positions for the exploration part. Once you have narrowed down your choices, you could do an internship in something specific that you have got the chance to already explore a little.


All the best!

I would say to trial internships in the top fields you're interested in. After doing the internship you will have a good idea of whether you want to do it long term or not.
