Adult Internships

college internshipsCan adults do internships?

If you are an adult looking for a job have you considered doing some free or contract work? When I speak to college students I strongly advocate these students do an internship or two during their college career in order to know what they want to do after college. Or in some cases, what they do not want to do.

If you are an adult the same principle can apply. I recommend you use your network of professional contacts to try and do some contract work with companies in your industry. I would go as far to say that it would be worth your time to do free work. Now, I am not saying you work for free for very long but if you are in position to do so, do it. A short term project done for free can reap large rewards in the future.

There are some sites on the net that can help you with your contract work endeavor.

Craigslist

Guru.com

Allfreelance.com

Solotgig.com

Indeed.com

A simple Google search may produce more results.

These national sites are great but if you can leverage your local network of contacts you will have faster results and hopefully be able to land a job faster.
