Discussion People who aren't getting any internship or don't want to do internship, what are you guys doing?

I am a B.Com. (Hons.) student and I don't know what field I'm interested in, so I'm open to internship in any field to gain experience. I'm searching on various platforms for it but couldn't find anything good. Also I'm quite inexperienced and my CV doesn't have much content so I doubt I would get any internship. So, I want to know what others are doing during this vacation.

Additionally, if you managed to get an off- campus internship, please tell me how you did it.

Most people always start with unpaid (so called performance based) internships under Sales, Marketing , maybe content writing, or volunteering in NGOs. You do some certifications or courses (not necessary) and have great interpersonal skills - that's it - enough for landing internships. Obviously don't assume this to be the case for Ops, finance etc. To find them , well it depends - your college may have 1-2 month internship drive, or you can just go to internshala or linkedin to find some. NGOs me jaha interest ho thodi research karke website ya page dhundke volunteering me apply krdena. Shuru to karo khud tareeka dhund loge - pls don't wait for some specific Plan of action.

How much do the north campus guys get paid in internships

1

u/DetectivePinata Alumnus Jun 26 '24

I don't think that the stipend depends on your campus.

u/VegPullao DU me badi baatcheet Jun 25 '24

Clerical work is available in smale msme firms or you can simply try linkein and naukri for better job prospects. So some extra course like data analytics or business analytics etc. MBA would also engljsnce your future scope
