What are the qualities of someone who is internship ready?

  Someone who is internship ready is mature and can take on anything the boss gave them. Someone that’s internship ready gets their job done when it’s due, and someone that’s always on time and knows what they are doing. Someone who knows the basics of what they’re doing. A person who doesn’t act like a kid and the boss doesn’t have to watch over them. I would show internship readiness by not sleeping in class, sit up when the teacher is teaching, and do all my homework.

What is the best and the worst job (paid or volunteer) that you have ever had?

  The best job that I ever have was an internship at the YBCA. It is a theater at the YBCA garden downtown behind matron the movie theater. This job was to dance it was an after school internship, so who didn’t want to get pay to dance. The dance that we did was a mix of hip-hop, African, chines, and Brazil. I love this internship because I love art and I make my own art, out of the program and in the program. I enjoy doing it because it’s one of my passion and skill, and you also get pays to do it. The primary responsibilities were being there on time and come to rehearsal often. What make the job enjoyable it’s because it about something I like to do so that’s why I enjoy doing it? 


  The skill that I learn that will help me in the internship is to be on time. What I learn about the workplace is that the workplace is busy, people always working and don’t have that much time to access you when you do need help. I also learn about myself to be patience. 


  The worst job I ever had was, a I sales job at Vector/Cutco it wasn’t that bad but you have to know people to be successful in this business of selling products. I was new in this country when I apply for this summary job, and I didn’t have any experience in sales. But you didn’t have to have any experience, to do this job because they offer payee training. I just want a job for the summary and I did get on so I was really happy, what I didn’t like was you have to do cold calling, and make appoint with people that you know are didn’t know. And I didn’t know anyone that much, so I didn’t make that much sales and the pay was commission. The grandiosity of this job wasn’t has great has working an YBCA.
