A LITTLE GUIDANCE GOES A LONG WAY

Show up curious. Leave more confident.

Practical starting points for your first real-world experience.

Write a thoughtful application

Explain what interests you, one relevant experience, and what you hope to learn. School projects and volunteering count as experience.

Prepare for a conversation

Read the listing, learn about the organization, and prepare two questions. Ask about supervision, schedules, and what a typical day looks like.

Know what to expect

Confirm location, pay, hours, and a point of contact before accepting. Share your plans with a trusted adult.
