Internships are the bedrock for making strong relationships and gaining practical experience in the tech industry. Before you’ve even been completely exposed to the job market, they may also provide you with perspective to assist you to make the ideal selection regarding the sort of tech career you should take and an adequate chance to sample numerous roles or departments.

Speaking of internships, there are a plethora of internship opportunities available to fresh graduates, as well as those with prior internship or work experience in the desired field. Indeed, LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network for finding the right job or internship, connecting and strengthening professional relationships, and learning the skills you need to succeed in your career, but undergrads are being overlooked, despite the fact that internships would add credibility and expertise to their academic and professional profile. Also, employment markets are growing more competitive, particularly when it comes to highly sought-after internships or positions for which many people are competing.

Students and young graduates should pay attention to QriosityNet, which provides a platform for students, institutions, and companies to engage, to solve the issue of undergrads being overlooked and fresh graduates being solicited for work experience, even for a paid internship. It offers a comprehensive student professional network on which they may build their career and make significant connections one at a time. It takes into account undergraduates’ potential for growth and skill excellence and provides them with paid or unpaid internships around the world so that their practical learning can gain credibility, increasing their value and demand in the marketplace by the time they graduate.

So, after slogging away for all those academic years and getting through those sleepless nights being fueled on caffeine, isn’t it a pity that most of you can’t consider yourself competent enough to get enrolled for a paid job position? Or just in order to build up your contacts and references, you take up an unpaid internship besides the practical skills you have to offer to the firm? Isn’t it insane that companies prefer that recent graduates work as interns before hiring them full-time which is a try-before-you-buy approach?

While getting onboard with a credible internship program is mandatory in today’s technical era or else expecting to get hired without an internship experience is equivalent to getting asked to perform human heart surgery without knowing how to cut the skin with a blade, it’s so pointless and baseless.

By spring 2021, just 22% of students said they’d had an internship during the school year, and only half of those said they were in-person, according to research from the Center for Research on College-Workforce Transitions at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Anyhow, increased competition makes internships harder to find and the candidate is like how am I supposed to get hired for a job already asking for experience when it my first-time job and for that one has to work in order to have known as being professionally experienced. It’s like a constant questionable cycle impossible to excel at.

A student shared his experience in which he endorsed the issue faced above that he had “to gain more experience and then start applying.”

So he took a professional development course for internship and job preparation. The course allowed him to better understand the work environment and hear experiences from employees at various companies. Additionally, he was able to formalize a cover letter, build his resume, and gained hands-on experience with Handshake and LinkedIn.

This professional growth and expertise is possible to achieve from QriosityNet where courses pertaining to an individual’s line of work are available at minimum to no cost. Furthermore, tools are also provided to build an ATS-compliant/ friendly resume which may be the key to your dream job.

After all, according to statistics given in an article on CIO, ‘The secret to beating a resume-filtering ATS’ it is stated that research from Capterra found that 75% of recruiters use some type of recruiting or applicant tracking system in the hiring process.

To add, many businesses now offer remote employment for entry-level jobs or internships since the epidemic hit, so if you’d want, you can intern for a firm halfway across the nation. Some still give onsite employment, while some even provide chances to travel overseas for an even more singular experience. You can make your tech internship as innovative and distinctive as you like; you simply need to do some research to pick the best one.

And QriosityNet is the definite student-focused platform that provides all remote, in-person, and tech internships individually tailored to the students’ or graduates’ needs and specifications. All this is present on-site to be availed without getting distracted from the random personally influenced posts of entrepreneurs on LinkedIn and similar sites which are of no relevance to a professional person’s interest and in fact serve as a stimulus of distraction and psychological effect on those who haven’t achieved the same professional milestone as them yet.

So, what’s cooking now..?

Sign up on QriosityNet and bless your potential to excel in your academic and professional aspects of life with ongoing guidance and tools available right on hand!
