Hi there. It’s common for many folks to feel confused about the work experience requirements when applying to grad school. There are some schools like BC or UIUC that prefer candidates who have full-time work experience and have already shown great success in their field. But most schools accept recent college graduates. Of course it is helpful to have some relevant internships during your undergraduate experience.
For internships, the most important thing is that they relate to your future major. If you want to apply for MSF programs, an internship at certain banks or security companies is optimal. You also need to be able to talk about your achievements at the internship. So during the internship, it’s a wise choice to focus on one project or a certain area. This is a chance to show that you can be successful and effective in a work environment. At the end of the day, it’s also crucial to your future pursuit of a job.
A recommendation letter from your supervisor at your internship is proof of your achievement. The experiences you relate in your essays are also a way to elaborate on your abilities. It doesn’t matter much how big the company is that you worked for. The key is to show what you did and what you achieved while you were there. Hopefully, you were able to have a positive influence!
