We were told we'd hear back re: full-time employment 1-2 months after our internship end date. What can I do to take advantage of the wait time and really show I'd be a good fit to bring on full-time?

Ask them this question! "What can I do in the next 1-2 months to show that I'd be a really good fit for this job?"

Sorry to break it to you but everyone lies and makes empty promises, and at the very best drags their feet when it comes to promotions and pay increases. I think asking what you could do is a great way to show you're serious, but definitely look elsewhere in the meantime.

To be honest, at this point they've spent the whole summer with you so they probably already know what they want to do by now.

Advice requested: When you were a legal intern or a summer, what type of projects did you like best? What was most helpful to you when you received a new assignment? Anything you wish your mentor did/didn’t do? I’m working with my first ever intern and trying to structure projects so they know that the work is important and relevant to the business, and why, and to provide enough background info on the area of law so they don’t spin wheels on the basics. What else should I be doing?

Hello Fishes,
My brother is a b.com graduate(2020 passed out) and looking for a job.
The problem here is because Finance jobs requires exceptional skills and academics due to which he is not able to get shortlisted for most job interview screening, he is receiving interview calls from great companies but not able to convert them.
If anybody can help even with an Internship position at their firm that would be a great starter to his career.

Why does the 3% Conference get so much money from agencies & clients when they have a history of showcasing toxic, abusive to female employees underneath them, women in advertising? Every year, people are shocked at who gets featured there. The idea is not just to celebrate women, it’s to celebrate aspirational women. Maybe they ran out of speakers and are dipping down too much. But agencies and clients should take a hard look at who is speaking before giving money.
