In all honesty, I didn't spend a significant amount of time at the internship fair. As a first-year student with an undecided major, I suppose I went into the experience assuming that nobody would be interested in considering me for an internship position. I do admit that I felt a little silly wearing a name tag that was blank except for my name, while others had their majors also printed across theirs.

However, I was the one that didn't take much of an interest in the internships offered, rather than the other way around. Like two students have already mentioned, the majority of these internships were geared toward business majors - and business is not really my cup of tea. I was actually surprised that there were not many communications-related internships offered.

I spent the majority of my time at the internship fair speaking with a representative from the Autism Society of North Carolina about a summer camp internship program. Or perhaps I should say listening to the representative, as she mostly presented her spiel rather than asking me specific questions. I listened intently and expressed my interest, and wrote down my contact information. Like I told the representative, I have an older brother who worked with the Autism Society for a few years, so luckily, I had a bit of background. Though I too am interested in the Autism Spectrum Disorder, the job does sound very demanding and exhausting. The representative was very vocal about expressing this. Though I will most likely not be applying for the Autism Society's summer camp program this year, I will definitely take it into consideration for next year.

The internship fair was not the most beneficial experience for me, but I'm sure it was a great experience and opportunity for all the business majors out there!
