<i><br /><span style="color: #0b5394;">Question: What role does a career fair play in the recruiting process for you?</span></i><br />
<br />
<b>Answer</b>: Lots! A career fair provides access to a lot of students with lots of majors. She looks for students who are selling their skills and experiences. Additionally, it is an opportunity to make connections with students they may have previously connected with at information session of who have attended other events.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #0b5394;">Question: What do you look for in the students you meet at the career fair?</span></i><br />
<br />
<b>Answer</b>: A few key points including:<br />
•Professional attire<br />
•Strong presenter (good eye contact and handshake)<br />
•Asking good questions (why you, why us)<br />
•A demonstrated passion<br />
<br />
<i>Question: What would you tell 1st and 2nd year students about attending Career Fairs?</i><br />
<br />
<b>Answer</b>: Go for it! Attend a fair even if you don’t know what you want to do. Put yourself out there. Practice the opportunity.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #0b5394;">Question: Resumes and follow-up. What is your take?</span></i><br />
<br />
<b>Answer</b>: Career fairs help us them determine how they will rank the resumes they receive. After the fair, she will call the top candidates and let them know they are being strongly sought. Career fairs can help a candidate move up or down in regards to their application status.<br />
<br />
Follow-up after a career fair is very important, as important as a first impression. If you are interested, show them and connect with them again after the fair.<br />

In a very real sense the need for Project Vote Smart was born in the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Unbridled power, "factions" that might deform their vision and an informed people were our Founding Fathers’ paramount concerns.<br />
<br />
Had they also been able to witness the great fortune of their design they would be pleased. However, had they also been able to witness the future ability of "factions" to torture truth, influence the structure and purpose of their creation by effectively frustrating the people's ability to be informed, they clearly would have created Vote Smart or something very much like it.<br />
<br />
It was through this awareness by political leaders of both parties (Ford, Carter, Goldwater, McGovern, Frenzel, Leach, Ferraro, Proxmire, Hatfield etc.) and members of groups like the League of Women Voters, Common Cause and the American Taxpayers Union, along with third party leaders like the Libertarian, Green and Natural Law Parties and their concerns about the changing character and conduct of politicians and campaigns that Project Vote Smart was born.<br />
<br />
<b>The Position:</b><br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cpmY76Sfigo/Ui34oZI_D8I/AAAAAAAAAME/IlKPksOUyeo/s1600/votesmart+logo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cpmY76Sfigo/Ui34oZI_D8I/AAAAAAAAAME/IlKPksOUyeo/s1600/votesmart+logo.jpg" /></a>The Project Vote Smart National Internship Program provides a unique lesson in the study of American politics. Students from across the nation and around the world come to our high tech research center in the Montana Rockies for ten weeks to help American citizens educate themselves about elected officials and candidates. By providing this information in an easy and accessible manner, Project Vote Smart believes that citizens can better defend themselves from the political hype and misrepresentation characteristic of present day political campaigns.<br />
<br />
Project Vote Smart is looking for interns with skills and interests that can be put to work in their Communications and Development department.<br />
<br />
<i>Responsibilities will include: </i><br />
1.Maintaining contact information for national and statewide media<br />
2.Contacting news organizations regarding news releases<br />
3.Assisting with the writing and editing of external communications<br />
4.Researching and assisting with new outreach/public relation campaigns<br />
5.Creating content for the organization on Facebook and Twitter.<br />
In addition, those with graphic design experience, both web and print, are strongly encouraged to apply.<br />
<br />
<i>Qualifications Desired-</i><br />
The overriding qualification for securing an internship position is your willingness to commit 100% to the Project's goals and mission. In addition, you must meet the following requirements:<br />
<br />
1. Must be able to set aside political beliefs and be objective and non-partisan while working<br />
2. Must be in good standing with your university/school, as current student or alum<br />
3. Must be able to commit to a minimum of 10 consecutive weeks<br />
4. Lastly, please remember that our research facility is located in an extraordinarily beautiful but remote area. You will be expected to maintain the facility.<br />

Although I would love to provide a one-size-fits-all answer, I cannot.<br />
<br />
Here are 5 questions to consider if you are thinking about asking this question:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Are you really looking for more work, or are you looking for a different type of work?</li>
<li>Are you sure you have done the best-possible job on the tasks you have currently assigned?</li>
<li>In asking for more work, what are you hoping to gain?</li>
<li>Do you have an idea of the type of work you would like to be engaged in?</li>
<li>Who is the best person to ask?</li>
</ol>
<div>
These guiding questions will help you feel better-prepared. Always remember, whenever we ask a question, we have to be ready to listen to the answer. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Good luck!</div>

Searching for a Summer Internship in April & MayStudent regularly ask whether it is too late to find a summer internship in the months of April & May. For those of you who have wanted to ask but maybe haven't, the answer is NO, it's not too late!<br />
<br />
Each week L&S Career Services learns of new internships that are still available for the Summer term. Yes, there are many internship programs that have completed their hiring and many that are finalizing offer. This said, some organizations have just started thinking about their staffing needs and abilities for the Summer!<br />
<br />
Here are 5 quick tips for searching for an internship in April & May:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Be ready to put in the time. </b>Searching for an internship takes time and you will need to put the same amount of time in to the search but in a shorter time-frame</li>
<li><b>Be strategic. </b>When searching, know the following about your needs: </li>
<ul>
<li>What geographic location are you looking in? </li>
<li>What industries are you interested in? </li>
<li>What skill do you have? What skills do you want to develop?</li>
<li>What financial consideration do you need to make?</li>
</ul>
<li><b>Be organized.</b> Create a detailed list to keep your search organized. List the following:</li>
<ul>
<li>Organization name</li>
<li>Contact person & information</li>
<li>Organization website and posting URL</li>
<li>Reasons why your interested</li>
<li>Application deadline (if applicable)</li>
<li>Dates of communication (ex. if you emailed them asking about a position, record it)</li>
</ul>
<li><b>Be the initiator</b>. Reach out to organizations that are interesting to you and let them know what you are looking for and why you are interested in them.</li>
<li><b>Be open.</b> Look for opportunities that will give you a quality experience even if it is not your "dream" internship. Not all internships are well-marketed so look for opportunities through your networks!</li>
</ol>
