OK, we know you haven’t even had spring break yet, but now’s the perfect time to start thinking about what you’ll be doing this summer.
“Internships are an amazing way to kick-start your future,” says Lauren Berger, CEO of InternQueen. com. “They can help you figure out where your interests truly lie.” Ready to take control of your future? Follow these steps to landing the perfect gig.

GET GOING
When you’re looking to land a gig, exhaust *all* resources. Start by chatting with your guidance counselor, who may know of companies that have previously hired interns in your area. Also, don’t underestimate social media for listings. “Many bloggers, creators and companies post about their intern hiring needs on Insta,” Berger shares. “So follow your favorite brands and keep watching!” You also can DM a brand ambassador to ask about internship programs. A quick message could lead to so much more.

CONSIDER YOUR TALENTS
Not sure what kind of internship to aim for? Think about what you’re good at and passionate about. “Your job should be at the intersection of those two areas,” says Berger. Say you love animals and writing: An internship in the PR department of a nearby pet shelter might be ideal for you. And remember, just because you do one internship in a certain field doesn’t mean you’ll be stuck there forever. So explore!
