I have just recently found that I will be interning at the California Innocence Project. The California Innocence Project is a non-profit organization that looks at guilty clients in prison and tries to exonerate them. I decided to intern with them because we had worked with them before in a school project. My experience in that project was inspiring enough for me to apply for an internship position there. When I went to do my interview, I met my potential mentor, Michael Semanchik. When I did the interview with him, he was really chill and relaxed, not something you would expect from lawyers. When I finished the interview, I knew I wanted to become an intern there. A couple days went by and I received confirmation on my internship. I am glad to get this internship and are looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, I do not have an internship right now. However, I have been taking a lot of steps to ensure that I do not get an internship that I will not regret later. As of now, I have been searching internships that have matched my interests. Some examples are law, medicine,and technology. Because of this, I have emailed various organizations requesting for an internship. Only one has a chance for an internship, which is the California Innocence Project. We worked with the CIP in the first semester, and I thought that was a very fun project. I sent an email with little hope of a chance, but I did get a chance. I received a confirmation email from the HR guy. He told me that we would be in touch soon. That gave me hope, but not enough. There may be a chance this might not work out, so I need backups. My dad and I have been going over potential internships and one that I'm interested in right now, is a pharmaceutical internship. My plans for that is to call around places, such as CVS, or Kaiser, and hope for the best. If that fails, I will continue to contact organizations until I find one that offers internships. |
