Interning

According to a representative at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, students who participated in internships while in college earned $7500 more dollars a year than those who did not. With the job market scarce and highly competitive, it behooves students to gain job experience by participating in internships. The earlier they start the better.

Landrum High School students should utilize Job Shadow Day and their senior project as a time to gain insight into a career in which they have an interest. It gives the student the opportunity to network and see if the job is a field in which he/she wants to pursue.

Students should meet with the guidance department to discuss job shadowing opportunities.
