ABSTRACT
This chapter explores what one must do after the internship. Many of the people that do the hiring of both interns and paid employees say that people who don't send a thank-you have seriously diminished their chances of getting the position. Internships have all but became a requirement when starting out in the fields of entertainment and broadcasting. Students need these internships not only to get their foot in the door, but to gain valuable experience that gives them an advantage when going for that first job in the industry. As both a professional broadcaster and college professor, the author approaches the topic of internships from both sides: what the student and intern site hope to gain. Every quality internship will give new insights and opportunities to help ready oneself for an entry level position in the entertainment industry.
