I'm in the process of applying for an internship this summer. It's more tedious and draining than I thought it would be.
I made a list of about 50 different agencies and I've typed up cover letters specific to each one of them.
As of today, I've "applied" to 25 different agencies. *crosses fingers* I'm no where near done, however. After I'm done sending out my cover letter and resume, comes the seemingly never ending list of follow-up calls to be made. I'm excited though! It's going to take persistence and patience, but as long as I get an internship somewhere (which I don't doubt that I will), it will be well worth the effort.
