Finding an internship allows you to build up your CV, to fulfil a school requirement, but also to test a job profile to be sure of your career direction. Where to find internship offers? Who to ask?
Post your CV on job boards
In order for your CV to be well integrated into these portals, you must highlight your skills in the form of blocks. Each block details your specificity with the key words that are appropriate for the profile you are looking for. For example, if you have a BTS in sales force, you should have a first section “Sales assistant” with the expressions: quotation, order taking, prospecting, customer relations and a second section “Administrative” with the administrative functions that you can perform.
