Days

When deciding to intern there are many decisions to be made. As part of this process you must decide whether to commit 5 days a week to one company or to split your time between 2. One company, five days a week means that you are always there. You're the go-to guy. Everyone is used to your presence and you are able to build those bonds a lot faster. Also, hopefully you are able to forge more solid contacts this way. If you split your internship you are grouped in with everybody else, as most interns are not able to be there five days a week. The bonds take longer to form and it is a struggle to learn that many more names. This makes the process a bit more challenging but it allows more opportunity for exploration. If you are not sure where you want to be in the business this is a great way to use your time and this opportunity to the fullest. So the real question is not five vs. two or three, it's 'do I know where I fit'?
