October 22, 2018 – Take Control of Your Future with Internships (& Me as Your Guide)
I get emails from students asking about the process of finding and securing internships. And while I put out a ton of free content, here on the blog and also on The Intern Hustle’s YouTube channel, it is time to give the people what they want!
The Course is an online program that is smartly designed to guide you through the internship process from start to finish. You no longer have to piece it all together and try to figure it out on your own. Once you sign up you will receive a new module, each week over a four-week period, containing sequential video lessons with corresponding tools and action guides (to help you take action).
Get on the waitlist for The Course here.
In addition, you’ll get weekly live Q&A sessions with me and a community of students from all over to network with for inspiration and accountability. Because it’s always nice to know there are other people on this journey with you and supporting you every step of the way.
And want to know the best part? Once you sign up you have lifetime access to The Course (and any upgrades I make to it along the way). That means you can go back and binge-watch all of the lessons at anytime for a little inspo, you can revisit specific action guides for a deep dive, and (my favorite part) you are forever a part of this community of intentional go-getters.
