Discover how I secured my internships during the summers of 2010 and 2011 in Fairfax, VA. It all started at a career fair, where I met recruiters and applied through Job Vault. I successfully navigated on-campus and phone interviews with site recruiters. My first role focused on logistics technology and ethanol blending, while the second involved enhancing a dewaxing tool for lubes and specialties. I presented my progress at poster sessions and had a final review resulting in a full-time job offer. Join me as I share tips for success in internship hunting!
