-: Well one of the things that I look
for in an intern is if they have strengths
in an area where I might be weak.
For example, my most recent intern,
she's the editor-in-chief
here at the university paper,
and she has incredible writing skills
because she's a journalism major.
I have, you know, good writing skills
but she's a really great writer.
So I was able to see that right off the bat
that she would be able to write blogs
and fill in the gaps for the things
that I don't, necessarily, have time for.
In the most careful way possible,
figuring out where the company
or the organization that you're looking to intern with,
where they want to grow or maybe where they don't
have the time and resources to do but they want to do it,
and finding a way to fill that need for them.
