Reding and O’Bryan evaluated feedback from previous students involved in internship programs and these organizations themselves to decide the most important factors that companies should implement in order to benefit the company and the student during the process.

Internship experience is essential for students to gain hands-on experience for future full time jobs and differentiate ourselves among competitors, especially for us who are taking MBA courses. Based on the network we built and skillsets gained through the internship, we could know more clearly whether we want to dedicate ourselves into related fields and industries. Besides, internship is a great opportunity to build important network that advances your career life and apply what you learned from school into the real business world. Therefore, you could compare the potential differences between theory and reality to pinpoint ideal future careers more accurately.
Young individuals who leave college with their perfect degrees think that having a degree will make them competitive and ensure them a career. But in today’s society, this is simply not the case anymore. A degree is not enough to be competitive which is why it is crucial for students to participate in internships so that they can stand out. Internships are different, they might be paid or unpaid, required or optional, you can get credit or not for it. Internships have many benefits for all involved: students, employers, and universities. The employers get to have access to qualified employees who have new ideas and energy, allow them to save money, and provide flexible schedules which might be important for them. The universities get to strengthen their ties with the community and receive feedback from the employers. However, of those involved, students have the most to gain from these internships which is why I believe they should be mandatory for all students. The students gain life-changing advantages such as developing important qualities, understanding if they made the right choice for their degree, and increasing

.... I have a plan in order to maintain growth and development in all three types of communication. Primarily and most obviously, I must consciously practice all of the skills and knowledge I have learned. Secondly, not being afraid to ask for, and accept, constructive feedback from others will be a huge contributor to recognizing and following up with needs for improvement in any communication areas. Finally, sharing what skills and knowledge I have gained in this class with others will help to improve and maintain my own communication skills by surrounding myself with an environment filled with people who are also competent communicators. The more people who understand effective communication, the better the understanding between each person in society overall. I hope to follow through with all of these propositions to become an even better communicator in the future.
Indeed, I admit that my experience in my clinical internship is much different in my industrial setting. I experienced the world of unemployed and employed people. I experienced to look for a job, pass resume, being interviewed and waiting for a call from a company. I admit that it’s really hard and tiring to look for a job.
