"It's timeeeee... for the Summer 2026 internship application cycle! I was lucky enough to intern for the Golden State Warriors last summer, which was one of the highlights of my college experience thus far. I learned so much and met so many amazing people, and it definitely helped me decide what I want to do post grad."
"However, applying to internships can be really difficult, and once you are in the interview process, it can be stressful. At the end of the day, it is rewarding to get that offer and feel a sense of relief that all of your work has been worth it, but getting there is hard. So, I developed a method for getting that internship offer that minimizes stress and maximizes reward."
Begin the internship search by identifying broad roles (marketing, finance, accounting, sales) and then specific sub-roles or categories that spark interest. Consider industries such as sports, beauty, fashion, and travel to narrow scope and make the search more manageable. Match applications to internships that overlap with existing skills; for example, apply to social media roles after managing a club page. Try new areas when undecided to gain clarity. Narrowing choices reduces stress, improves focus during interviews, and increases the likelihood of receiving offers that align with career goals.
