Review the pros and cons of getting a job or internship in the summer months.

1. Part-time Job or an Internship?
What is the Better Choice
for the Summer?

2. • Nearly all of college students crave nothing more
than to hang out with friends, get a suntan at the
beach, and go to some wild summer parties.
While you ought to actually take a while to relax
and your brain some, you should also consider
working part-time or an internship.
• The problem is, which of the two should you go
after?

3. Internships
• An internship is supposed to provide you an
inside look into a specific career or industry group
and provide you with helpful recommendation
and guidance.
• Hours could differ, however internships
commonly fit in real nice with the typical 9-5
work week. That will allow you to still have some
summer fun during the evenings and weekends.

4. • For those who do a great job interning, the
company will probably want you there
longer, and you'll have leg up on other grads
for a permanent position.
• If not, employers are always impressed with
students who’ve invested in their time, and
are likely to hire somebody who has an
internship or two on their resumes over those
who don’t.

5. Part-time Jobs
• If you are hard up for cash, then part-time work is
a good choice to rustle up some cash and keep
your student loan debt to an non-stressful
amount.
• The paycheck is an obvious positive, however the
value of a part-time job goes past that. You'll
learn skills that are important like courtesy and
being on-time.
• A lot of jobs that are part-time are in the service
industry like retail or fast-food, so you will be
interacting with the public.

6. • While it is true part-time jobs are great
additions to your resume, they are usually less
of a boost to your resume than an internship.

7. Conclusion
Internships may have job-like similarities, and
there are jobs with minimal hours to get your feet
wet that have internship-like aspects.
• In the end, it’s necessary that you just explore
positions that you are interested in, so you know
what you're getting your self into. Whatever you
pick, simply recognize that both internships and
part-time jobs are excellent methods to spend
your summer away from school.
