On the morning of December 3, 2024, the Faculty of Business Administration at Van Lang University organized a workshop titled "Conquering Internships: A Step-by-Step Guide – Participate in Direct Interviews with 15 Companies." This event aimed to help students meticulously prepare for their internship journeys, craft professional personal profiles, and increase their chances of securing positions in top companies.

By laying out a clear development path, students can not only enhance their foundational skills but also create opportunities to impress potential employers. The speaker elaborated on CV requirements, appropriate interview and workplace etiquette, and encouraged students to actively learn, observe, and maintain good relationships with their internship organizations.

As part of the "Internship Guidance" workshop, students were introduced to practical internship support programs, opportunities to gain real-world experiences with domestic and international companies, and recruitment websites such as Ejob, which help enhance employment prospects in today’s competitive job market.

Dr. Nguyen Quynh Mai, Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration emphasized that internships not only equip students with necessary skills but also prepare them to confidently face challenges in a professional environment, paving the way for future career success.

The workshop offered practical insights and included direct interview sessions with representatives from 15 companies. These sessions provided students with real-world experience and valuable feedback to refine their personal profiles. This initiative aimed to expand internship and job opportunities, helping students fulfill their aspirations on their career paths.

Through the valuable insights from the speakers and the post-event direct interviews, students were equipped with essential preparation for their internship journeys. These experiences will allow them to accumulate valuable knowledge and increase their chances of securing positions in their desired companies.
