Which internship would you take for summer?

say you got these options for your sophomore summer...

  1. Federal Bureau of Investigation
  2. a presidential candidate's election office on the year of presidential election
  3. finance internships that we see thousands of times in this website
  4. white house

if you were given any of these choices, which one would you choose?

 

Personally, I would love to intern for FBi:)

FBI:
your answers are subject to verification by pre-employment polygraph examination(s).
(Remember, you can't lie to Federal agents)

and I chose "sophomore" summer because I think everyone should just chill during their freshmen summer... and for junior summer, well, should be focusing on your career goals...

 

an internship at the white house is by far the best and will look the best for the rest of your life. No matter what you do, anyone who looks at your resume will ask about 1600...will open doors for you for the rest of your life...no matter what you do.

 

Agree with tlips on the whitehouse internship - you'll get nicely plugged in and get a network (even if youre dealing only with other interns) which, say 10 years down the line, will make you an asset to any bank if you wanna do banking. With a finance intenship, it's more been thre, done that like 1000s of other people, got the tshirt...

Don't undervalue having a different CV, I got a lot of interviews I probably shouldn't have done because I used to work as a tennis coach and it really stood out and was a conversation started - so for me go with the whitehouse!

 

If you want to work in politics, you should be mindfull of party. If your first job is for an R, you are an R and the Ds wont touch you (and vice versa)....if you don't, no one is going to care in three years what party was in the white hous. Im trying to stay constructive so I will just say that 1600 is a once in a lifetime opportunity that you will look back on and regret if you don't take(in effort of full disclosure...I hate politics)
