During college I did two internships instead of the recommended one, which not only gave me the edge over other applicants at my first job a few years later, but also I'm still friends with these companies and they are now clients of mine. Internships can be hard but soooo important!
i love how mish has branched out and has started to talk about things that schools don't, like tips on getting jobs (career talk), mental health/thoughts (pillow talk), and more! love you mish :))
this is such a great idea! i think it's also worth mentioning how to literally find internships, i.e. your college career site, via linkedin, via company's career pages on their sites, etc. because sometimes it can be hard just finding one to apply to! xx
Thank you so much for this video ! It was really informative and helpful. I am going to graduate from university this year and I was not so much looking for or thinking about an internship but applying for a permanent job. However this has given me a newer outlook that it doesn't matter because we all start somewhere and that internships are a good place to start. So I appreciate this video a lot. Thank you Michelle and Intern Queen. 👍👏
Hi Michelle. Thank you for sharing this video with us. I have always looked up to you. You are such an amazing person. Your enthusiasm for life and how you perceive it just inspires me.
I am absolutely in love with this series! Thank you, Michelle, for instilling the importance of independence and hard work in all of us young women/men!
WOW THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANK U. im not even a freshman yet but im really ambitious and really want to try out intern in sophomore year. i love career talk series :")
mixie89 i don't think we should talk about being an army here hehe(i don't like it when armys just randomly comment about bts on another video). anyway im just a normal person i watch all other stuff after all.
Thank you for posting this! As a college Junior, this is what I've been thinking about so much and I didn't really know how to approach it but after watching this, I will refer to this when I'm applying for internship! Love ya Michelle!
These tips are very valid! Another tip if you don't have experience, is share your passion. If you are interviewing with someone and they see how passionate you are about the company or position, no amount of experience can beat that. Passion drives success! Also, start internships early :) It gives you a head start of what kind of company or work lifestyle suits you. The internships you choose to do in college especially that are similar to your dream job will definitely help! 😘 😘
i like how you actually got someone who is a pro on this topic to sit down with you and give your audience great tips and advice on how to properly get themselves together. continue to rock it as usual your biggest fan ever stay truw and stay you
Hey Michelle, I'm loving these career related videos. Just having content on makeup and fashion as well as career on the same channel is amazing. You always inspire me! Keep slaying queen Mish ^_^
Hi Michelle and Lauren! Thank you so much for this awesome new series Career Talk. Last year I landed my first full-time job and all of the advice you listed is great for landing internships, part-time and full-time jobs. The thank you note is always a must and i'm glad that you mentioned it. All of my internships have helped me in someway at m current job (and i've done a lot of internships!) Thank you again for the new career series. I can't wait to watch more!
I got to be an intern to a company I adore. But it turns into a nightmare. Some companies took interns as an option of a cheap labor. It's pretty sad. instead of learning about the working/business skills, I learn about life and how some rich people really are. XD
+Sabrina Tajudin aww that's my fear! I never try interning before but I do heard a lot about how they are just using you and not really showing you the skills to grow. :(
That's most of the intern nowadays, they are mostly looking for free work force but not a right hand in the position. I met a lot of of companies hiring interns every few months to do the same thing but no one turn to full time. And nothing you can learn from it....
Really good tips for interns and graduates. I had to learn all this the hard way and if you make effort it does work. The Facebook test is important. Employers will check your Facebook whether you like it or not.
This is an awesome start to this series, Michelle! These are really great tips from Lauren that I'm sure are super helpful to sooo many out there that don't learn these life skills in school. Great job.
I started watching your videos due to your amazing makeup skills. But your pillow talk videos and now this advice video have been extremely helpful. You are beauty, brains, and everything inbetween. Thank you.
People have been makeup-shaming me recently, and I hate it, Mish! I need a video addressing makeup shaming. This issue is very serious and it you are a great voice to advocate it.
This is such a great idea! I favorited to keep this in mind when I'm applying this year. I'm actually handing out resumes tomorrow and will be applying for internships through the networking I will do and will definitely do this.
I have watched your videos since I was 14 years old... Your tutorials have helped me avoid the awkward makeup stages of my teen years. But now that I am a college student....I couldn't have found a more helpful video.
Thank you so much Michelle! I'm in my last year of college and I have to send out internship applications as part of my curriculum in a month or two and this helped out so much! I really love how you're doing different types of videos and helping so many people. (:
I'm gonna take an internship for next few months and I saw this. Thanks so much for helping me to know a lot of good tips about resume and interview. Hope I can land an interesting position in future and hope you still keep creating some great and helpful stuff like this :)
oh goshh.. i am currently looking for an internship. thank god you made this video. it really helps boosting up my confidence as well as learning new things which are crucial for the internship application. thanks!
Thank you for sharing this video with us Michelle! One of the many helpful videos I've watched from you. This gives me more insight on internships as I'm working towards resume building and all that fun stuff in graphic design. Love you
This video is so helpful. I'm only 14 yrs old but I really wanna make something of myself even though I'm really young and no internship would probably pick me. Thank you, Michelle! 😇
I've heard that once upon a time people just applied for jobs and the whole process was not soooo complex. Nowadays you need to have a pretty impressive resume and experience and recommendations and what not, all for a basically mediocre job or .... internship. I can't help but think that this is wrong somehow.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS SERIES MICHELLE! I don't know if you read comments anymore or if someone reports the comments to you, but whoever handles these please: *PLEASE KEEP UP WITH THIS SERIES! AND PLEASE MAKE A "WHAT TO DO DURING/AFTER YOUR INTERNSHIP VIDEO"* I am watching and and LOVING this omfg.
I've never heard of internqueen.com until I saw this video! looking at the description of these internships are so exciting.. they look like amazing opportunities but at the same time, a little intimidating.. 😓
I am really loving these kinda videos from Michelle. They are something different from makeup, Fashion but very useful and also helping people in different ways. So yeah 100% 👍🏻
I thought I was going to be bored with this video but I actully learned a lot even though I already finished my internship. This could also be helpful for fresh graduates. Thumbs up Michele!
This is an excellent resource and refresher for students of all ages! Thanks Michelle and Lauren for putting this together! Looking forward to more of this career-related series! Perhaps in future episodes you can touch on networking and how to make connections with the right people to help advance your career goals? xx
it can be people you worked with or bosses. but you need to have been a good employer to name the boss, or being a coo coworker for other employee am I right?
Michelle THANK YOU SO MUCH! this video was beyond helpful. Soon to be college graduate and looking for internships, this is priceless advice. Already cleaned up my resume ;) much love!
Wow, this is such a crazy coincidence. I uploaded a video called about career advice with Casey Neistat (following your passion after college) just now, and I check my subscription box that you posted a video on career too, Michelle! I have a CRAZY story of how I met Casey Neistat and asked him "what advice would he give to people who just graduated college and want to follow their passion". This was a few weeks ago in NYC, where he filmed a video with me, which is the one I just posted! I am also trying to inspire others as you are. I'd love to work together and continue inspiring the world.
I enjoyed watching this video. This is very informative! I have done an internship before and I am currently looking for an entry-level job so these tips are so useful! I look forward watching the next episodes of this in the future especially more about entering entry-level jobs/interviews etc. Thank you so much! More power!
I think it's ridiculous that students should be expected to update their social media. These days, I hate social media; I hate what it's become. I don't really use it anymore, at least not for myself. On twitter, for example, I follow some interesting organizations/people that I like, but I no longer post. I don't like how this may hurt my chances at finding an internship. I may just delete my social media presence all together...
Yeah - I think Michelle and Lauren were speaking specifically about if you're looking for an internship in an Internet company or in social media. Then it makes sense that of course you have to have your social media in-check. But pretty much every other job/employer doesn't care how often you post. They do care, however, that your online presence is clean and free from incendiary comments.
I've always heard about this channel but never checked it out until it came in my recommendations. This video was so good! Thank you for sharing, I will definitely be implementing some of these points.
+Kia Dobre seems like something minor but if you are applying for a secretary job for example this is fatal. its not that hard to run a spelling check.
I remember Lauren Berger coming to my college to give a little talk about internships, and couple years later after I graduated from college I landed a full time job right out of school because I had a lot of past experience from internships. It was a lot of hard work, but it really did pay off in the end! :)
OMG i will graduate soon and i think this video is much more insightful rather than the one my uni told. thanks for the advices. i think these tips are not only good for getting an internship but also for getting a job. THANK YOU so much. I love you, Michelle. You really put great contents in your channel. xoxoxo
Really helpful stuff Michelle Phan. I'm now a graduating student. I'm gonna try these tips when applying in my dream companies. Thank you so much for creating these videos. You are one of my role models. More power and positive vibes!
OMGGGGG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! As a freshly turned 22 years old i'm struggling and it's always great to listen to talks about career, it helps and it inspires me! so thanks a million! Honestly I'm not too sure what I want to do with my life and I have 0 experience but right now I want to try the communication field! I'll try to look for an internship... maybe it's my life vocation who knows lol
During college I did two internships instead of the recommended one, which not only gave me the edge over other applicants at my first job a few years later, but also I'm still friends with these companies and they are now clients of mine. Internships can be hard but soooo important!
i love how mish has branched out and has started to talk about things that schools don't, like tips on getting jobs (career talk), mental health/thoughts (pillow talk), and more! love you mish :))
I had such a fun time filming this video! Thanks for everything Michelle!
I would say send it to the person who interviewed you or you can address it to the entire office team!
WHO ELSE IS SOOOO JELOUS OF ALL THE NAIL POLISHES SHE HAS BEHIND HER??? 😍
+SprinkleOfStyle omg me
me
Seriously
Omg yes!! I want them all
I cnt use nail polish anymore sigh miss using them
this is such a great idea! i think it's also worth mentioning how to literally find internships, i.e. your college career site, via linkedin, via company's career pages on their sites, etc. because sometimes it can be hard just finding one to apply to! xx
Good point!
Cleaning up social profiles is a must in our age. Employers do check out social profiles before hiring, because it's easy.
I love these kind of videos I love that you're trying to help people achieve their goals
Thank you so much for this video ! It was really informative and helpful. I am going to graduate from university this year and I was not so much looking for or thinking about an internship but applying for a permanent job. However this has given me a newer outlook that it doesn't matter because we all start somewhere and that internships are a good place to start. So I appreciate this video a lot. Thank you Michelle and Intern Queen. 👍👏
Hi Michelle.
Thank you for sharing this video with us. I have always looked up to you. You are such an amazing person. Your enthusiasm for life and how you perceive it just inspires me.
Finaly a video that really learns you something💋
*teaches
+Maaike Dekkinga Glad you enjoyed! XO
*finally
+Kill my Joy Gerard KILLJOYS MAKE SOME NOISE
+Maaike Dekkinga Finally* Teaches*
This is so great for young adults and even teenagers who have a hard time getting internships!
Just what I needed. The job market is depressing currently so I feel like this series keeps me going.
Definitely a unique segment of videos and who better than to do it than you! Love this idea! I can't wait to see the rest of this series!
I am absolutely in love with this series! Thank you, Michelle, for instilling the importance of independence and hard work in all of us young women/men!
I'm already loving episode 1!
Please keep posting videos like this one. It's really useful for everyone, it's amazing that we can learn new things while entertaining. Great Mish
WOW THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANK U. im not even a freshman yet but im really ambitious and really want to try out intern in sophomore year. i love career talk series :")
mixie89 i don't think we should talk about being an army here hehe(i don't like it when armys just randomly comment about bts on another video). anyway im just a normal person i watch all other stuff after all.
Thank you for posting this! As a college Junior, this is what I've been thinking about so much and I didn't really know how to approach it but after watching this, I will refer to this when I'm applying for internship! Love ya Michelle!
This was soooo helpful! Thank you so much for starting this series :)
This woman is amazing! Great tips, very informative.
*vigorously jotting and taking notes*
These tips are very valid! Another tip if you don't have experience, is share your passion.

This is great! I'm a freshman in highschool and I wanna apply for an internship in a couple years and this is very helpful knowing ahead of time.
i like how you actually got someone who is a pro on this topic to sit down with you and give your audience great tips and advice on how to properly get themselves together. continue to rock it as usual your biggest fan ever stay truw and stay you
Hey Michelle, I'm loving these career related videos. Just having content on makeup and fashion as well as career on the same channel is amazing. You always inspire me! Keep slaying queen Mish ^_^
Awsome great tips been looking at a career change so will defo be watching the full series
I adore your videos! They are so useful and just amazing! ❤
i love how michelle is taking a step further influencing her viewers to a good destination. 😊✨
Really needed this video in my life right now! Thank you
Hi Michelle and Lauren! Thank you so much for this awesome new series Career Talk. Last year I landed my first full-time job and all of the advice you listed is great for landing internships, part-time and full-time jobs. The thank you note is always a must and i'm glad that you mentioned it. All of my internships have helped me in someway at m current job (and i've done a lot of internships!) Thank you again for the new career series. I can't wait to watch more!
+Jessika Garcia I'm so glad you liked it! Michelle and I had so much fun making this video!
I got to be an intern to a company I adore. But it turns into a nightmare. Some companies took interns as an option of a cheap labor. It's pretty sad. instead of learning about the working/business skills, I learn about life and how some rich people really are. XD
Hopefully it's paid ;c And hopefully you aren't doing stuff like getting them coffee.
hopefully when you become rich you won't be like that
+Sabrina Tajudin aww that's my fear! I never try interning before but I do heard a lot about how they are just using you and not really showing you the skills to grow. :(
That's most of the intern nowadays, they are mostly looking for free work force but not a right hand in the position. I met a lot of of companies hiring interns every few months to do the same thing but no one turn to full time. And nothing you can learn from it....
I love that you are making videos like this. It makes you become so much more than a beauty guru.
This is such a helpful video! I'm so glad that this video was uploaded because I actually have an interview in 2 days!! :) thanks so much!
Good luck!!💕
How did it go?
+Valentina Vee it went pretty well I guess! They haven't decided who got into which position, but I am hoping that I'll receive a callback from them!
+InsideMichelle'sWorld thanks! I needed it! :)
I love your videos so much! Keep up the great work ❤️☺️
the queen of intern is awesome! very clear, informative and didn't bore me at all.
btw what on earth was michelle wearing on the second half of the video? it was so bad for this kind of video
+nhza *in
Thx!
Really good tips for interns and graduates. I had to learn all this the hard way and if you make effort it does work. The Facebook test is important. Employers will check your Facebook whether you like it or not.
Best series ever. Seriously. Thank you for making this!
This is an awesome start to this series, Michelle! These are really great tips from Lauren that I'm sure are super helpful to sooo many out there that don't learn these life skills in school. Great job.
Thanks!

People have been makeup-shaming me recently, and I hate it, Mish! I need a video addressing makeup shaming. This issue is very serious and it you are a great voice to advocate it.
I love this! Your voice is so soothing! ❤️❤️
This video has got to be one of the most helpful videos on youtube. Thank you for sharing this Michelle x
I'm so glad that you make these kind of videos
This is such a great idea! I favorited to keep this in mind when I'm applying this year. I'm actually handing out resumes tomorrow and will be applying for internships through the networking I will do and will definitely do this.
good luck!!
This is so helpful because a year from now I'll be having my college degree. (fingers crossed)
Thanks Mish, love you ♡
I have watched your videos since I was 14 years old... Your tutorials have helped me avoid the awkward makeup stages of my teen years. But now that I am a college student....I couldn't have found a more helpful video.
I am currently in my last year of fashion business school and looking for an internship, this has helped me sooooo much!
Thank you so much Michelle! I'm in my last year of college and I have to send out internship applications as part of my curriculum in a month or two and this helped out so much! I really love how you're doing different types of videos and helping so many people. (:
So helpful! Thanks, Mish
I love you saphy💜💜
I actually really liked this video! It's a great change from the typical makeup tutorials. Just wanted to say great job!
This video was soooooooo good!!!

I love this SO MUCH!!! I'm currently in college (UK education system) and still need to figure out my career, this is perfect!!! Xx
This is really great advice, that I do try to follow :) Great video!
Loving those pillows and the background (especially the 1UP and Hatsune Miku)!
I've never heard of internqueen.com until I saw this video! looking at the description of these internships are so exciting.. they look like amazing opportunities but at the same time, a little intimidating.. 😓
I am really loving these kinda videos from Michelle. They are something different from makeup, Fashion but very useful and also helping people in different ways. So yeah 100% 👍🏻
How to choose career?
Yes. I seriously need that
I thought I was going to be bored with this video but I actully learned a lot even though I already finished my internship. This could also be helpful for fresh graduates. Thumbs up Michele!
Glad you enjoyed!
Itd be awesome if you could some kind of Jessica Jones related makeup/lookbook video idk
I SECOND THIS
This is an excellent resource and refresher for students of all ages! Thanks Michelle and Lauren for putting this together! Looking forward to more of this career-related series!
Perhaps in future episodes you can touch on networking and how to make connections with the right people to help advance your career goals? xx
You're not supposed to use family members as a reference guys :)
Personal reference
+simply.s Generally, yes, but if they ask for a personal reference, you pretty much limited to friends and family.
Personal reference can be anyone but your family members
it can be people you worked with or bosses. but you need to have been a good employer to name the boss, or being a coo coworker for other employee
am I right?
Michelle THANK YOU SO MUCH! this video was beyond helpful. Soon to be college graduate and looking for internships, this is priceless advice. Already cleaned up my resume ;) much love!

Gonna check your video soon!❤
good stuff!
Michelle seems like such a great role model!! I want her to do more videos like this
What if you never had a job experience?
Love this idea, Michelle! As a college student, I find this very useful and interesting! You are like a big sister to me!
just curious. is she still with dom? i feel like we haven't seen them in a video/photo in a while.
She wanted to keep it as her privacy :) they're still happy together
She wanted to keep it as her privacy :) they're still happy together
+Nabila Zamri oohhh. good. i really like them together. :)
Watch the video "my new chapter" by Michelle
He is in there
+subtle madness that video was made more than a year ago... she uploaded now, but the footage is pretty old.
Thank You Mish! I really find these helpful. I'm 14 years old that you've helped and inspired since 2012. Lots of love from the philippines!
can u do a makeup tutorial of your comic character from helios femina
O
hey fellow ARMY❤❤
Army's are everywhere nowdays but I'm one to lol
I enjoyed watching this video. This is very informative! I have done an internship before and I am currently looking for an entry-level job so these tips are so useful! I look forward watching the next episodes of this in the future especially more about entering entry-level jobs/interviews etc. Thank you so much! More power!

Are you still dating Dominic?
+Caitlin Barry apparently she is, they just wants the relationship to be more private
I've always heard about this channel but never checked it out until it came in my recommendations. This video was so good! Thank you for sharing, I will definitely be implementing some of these points.
Did anyone notice she spelled 'capabilities' wrong in her resume at 3:51?? lol
+Sonali B grammar nazis
+Kia Dobre seems like something minor but if you are applying for a secretary job for example this is fatal. its not that hard to run a spelling check.
true
I received 3 internship offers at retail corporate headquarters this summer! The advice is spot on.
As someone who is going to be starting college next year, thanks soo much for all of these new life/career tips - they are seriously helpful!
What school? Congrats!
This was very helpful and interesting! Please make more of these type of videos!
I remember Lauren Berger coming to my college to give a little talk about internships, and couple years later after I graduated from college I landed a full time job right out of school because I had a lot of past experience from internships. It was a lot of hard work, but it really did pay off in the end! :)
What school? Awesome!!!
OMG i will graduate soon and i think this video is much more insightful rather than the one my uni told. thanks for the advices. i think these tips are not only good for getting an internship but also for getting a job.

An internship will help you figure out what you want to do!
