Internshala quoted in Deccan Herald, June 11, 2013
Deccan Herald ran a story on how students can make most of their internships on 11th June, 2013. This is an excerpt from the article:
“Sarvesh Agrawal, Founder-CEO of popular internships website Internshala.com, says, “Firstly, when looking for an internship, ask yourself: ‘What am I seeking in this job? Is it a handsome stipend, just office experience which can be provided by a call centre too or work experience in my own course/subject even if unpaid?’ Once you have your priorities clear, you will be able to find the right internship for yourself.”
“Next,” he says, “Make the right choice between internship with a big brand name and a small company. It’s true that prospective employers get impressed with big brand names on a resume, but sometimes, a smaller company provides much wider work experience. This is so because established organisations already have skilled workers while smaller companies always need people to look after a gamut of functions.””
