When you finish school, you want to have a job. The best way to get a job is to have an internship. But, not all internships are created equal. Not all industries are created equal, either. You’re more likely to find a job, period, internship or not, if you’ve trained in certain areas.
So, if you’re a college or high school student (or the parent of one), take into consideration some new research done by LinkedIn that can help show you where to land a job after your internship.

Haha. I had a graduate internship after a PhD. Know what I got after those three months of doing real revenue-generating work?
-An offer for an extension for another month of that lousy hourly pay and no benefits.
-After that, another one month extension offer.
– After that, I got a FT job offer that I accepted that was reneged by HR a week later.
– After that, I got a consulting contract offer that I accepted that was reneged by HR a week later.
– After that, I got a real job elsewhere.
