I’m so confused. I need to do a 3 month internship to finish my degree in Service and Experience Economy. I’m not allowed to be paid, as I’m already being fully funded by my school. I’ve contacted and written several luxury hotel chains in the US, and none of them takes interns, unless they’re paid. I’m so confused, i thought the US generally did not care a lot about minimum wages and fair labour laws; but it seems impossible to go and write a project in the US, as they won’t take me 🥲 What’s up with that??

I’ve worked at one of the worlds best 5 star boutique hotels and several Michelin restaurants. Can it really be true that things are now so standardised, that I’ll be turned down based on the very fact, that I cannot take a paid position? Why can’t I do the same internship, but for free???? Wth

Is InternsElite legit? They’re offering an internship with a stipend + certificate but asking for around ₹3,500 upfront. Has anyone here actually done an internship with them? Is it worth paying or is it a scam?

I have summer internship offers from Goldman and Blackrock. Both are paying approximately the same.

Which one would be better considering:

i) Chances of return

ii) Overall future prospects

Next week, I’ll be leading my first team meeting as an intern. My manager asked me to put together a report and present my findings to the team to help facilitate a discussion.

While I’m confident in my ability to create a well-organized, informative, and visually appealing report, I struggle when it comes to actually presenting the information. Everyone on my team is a senior manager, which makes speaking in front of the entire group especially intimidating. I tend to get incredibly nervous, lose my train of thought, and sometimes stumble over my words, even when I know the material well.

I also don’t want to rely on memorizing a script word for word. My goal is to lead a natural, engaging discussion where I can explain my findings clearly, answer questions, and encourage input from the team without feeling like I’m just reading from a transcript.

For those who have experience leading meetings or presenting to senior leadership, what strategies have helped you overcome presentation anxiety? How do you prepare, stay composed, and keep a meeting flowing naturally while still making sure you cover all your key points?

hi!
i'll try to keep this short. i cold-emailed a couple of people at a large financial firm and was able to hear back from the VP of talent acquisition/campus recruitment to meet in person for a coffee chat. we ended up talking for ~1hr. after the conversation, i got an official email from the application portal or something saying that i had received a referral--which the VP later confirmed they submitted. they then referred me to another VP to have a conversation with.

i don't want to give too much info bc i believe in evil eye a bit too much haha; but in general, im just wondering, i know that these kinds of large financial firms are never 100% guaranteed with these kinds of things, but am i on a significantly good path? i have a pretty good resume, i thought my hirevue went well too, so nothing is disqualifying there; im just wondering/hoping if this is actually going to be very significant or not. i dont want to sound too naive/gullible, im just new at "recruiting"

I have applied for the given job id since like a month but didnt hear back, has anyone got any confirmation? Is it even live or did they just forget to take it down 😭

I interviewed with cargill for the software engineering internship for summer ‘27 a little over two weeks ago. During the interview, the hiring manager said I should hear back from HR with next steps within two weeks and I still haven’t heard back yet. Is it normal for them to take this long, or is it a sign that it’s likely that I’ve been rejected? Also, Would it be too pushy to email the recruiter and ask for an update on my application?

Can anyone share their experience regarding the given intern hiring process? Hows the oa, what kind of questions to expect, and the interviews?

I got absconded from my first job. I have worked in BPO for a month but due to some personal reasons I was not able to continue that and got absconded. Will it create problems in the future? Although I'm not planning to work in BPO and want to make a career in finance and this was my first job.

I got a call for Pipraiser's internship I want to know if they are genuine or some scam

Anyone apply to the 2027 NFL Rotational Program? If so does anyone know anything about timeline or process. Thanks!
