Why an Internship?

From Nate Moller, owner of Utah County Reviews:

Ever since I can remember, I wanted to be an entrepreneur. I loved meeting with people and selling a product or service I felt they needed – something that solved a problem.

As I look back at my college days, I’ve asked myself the question: “If I knew then what I know now about business and running an effective business, what would I do different?”

The answer has been really clear – between my college classes I would do internships or temporary jobs that gave me a “taste” of what’s out there in different industries that related to what I was interested in. Not only would this have given me great experience for a resume, but it would have warned me about certain jobs I would NEVER want to do. – Nate M.
