In today’s hyper competitive job market, internships are becoming a must-have on CV for any engineering student. Many engineering students want to go for internships, but they are not really sure why they want to do an internship? Or what is the purpose of an internship?
They are just told that doing internships will help them to get a good job.
So why do companies/ employers prefer students who had done internships?
Employers believe that engineering students with internship experience, when compared with those who did not, have better skills and ability to work hands-on on live projects. They also have better understanding of work in industry and hence can take effective career decisions.
During internships engineering students are provided with an effective platform to figure out their own personal priorities and get real insights about how corporates work. This makes the companies work easy as students who had already done internship knows about the corporate work culture and don’t require much training on them.
Sometimes internships will expose engineering students on what career path not to take which will help them to identify their area of interest. This will help them not to waste time on a wrong career path.
Even at internships, students get feedback from other professionals on what skills they need to work on and what are the areas they should improve. This will prove to be a valuable take away point for engineering students.
