*What‘s the difference between an internship, part-time job, and a volunteer position? These days, the lines between these types of positions are blurred. Traditionally, an internship is either a paid or unpaid position where you would gain real work experience along with course credit at an educational institution. These days, however, some people use the term internship interchangeably with “part-time job” or “volunteer position,” depending on if the internship is paid or not, and hoping that the word, “internship” will make the position sound more prestigious. This has led to some confusion for students. Today, the main difference between a part-time job vs. an internship is whether or not the position has a strong educational component, allowing you to learn a lot about a career field in a somewhat structured manner, or at the very least, with a mentor to guide you. No matter what the position is called, be sure to get as much information as possible. Is this position paid or unpaid? Will course credit be available? Who will be guiding you? What will you be learning and how? And remember, you can still learn a lot about a career by taking on a volunteer position or a part-time job. So limiting a search to just the term “internship,” will limit your opportunities as well.
