Internships don’t land themselves. But at ESSEC Asia-Pacific, you’ve got an entire support system to help you. From CV polishing to exclusive job boards, here’s how to fully leverage ESSEC’s Career Services for your internship (and future career) success.

Step 1: Show Up Early (and Often)

• Attend the Career Services orientation in your first few weeks. It’s your roadmap to everything available.
• Book a one-on-one consultation with your career advisor early, even if you’re not actively applying yet.

Why it matters: You’ll get personalized feedback and build a relationship. So when the perfect internship pops up, they already know your goals.

Step 2: Use the Tools—Not Just the Talks

• Log into JobTeaser, ESSEC’s internship/job platform, and filter by location, industry, and duration.
• Access templates for CVs, cover letters, and LinkedIn profiles. Don’t just download—book a review session to get yours critiqued.
• Join career prep workshops (resume writing, interview skills, networking) run by pros who know what employers look for.

Pro tip: Record yourself doing a mock interview using your phone or laptop. Then, book a session to get feedback.

Step 3: Tap Into the Alumni Network

• Reach out to alumni via LinkedIn or when they visit campus for talks.
• Ask about their career journey, internship tips, and how they used Career Services.
• Don’t pitch. Be curious. People are more helpful when they feel heard.

Why it matters: Referrals and informational chats can open doors you didn’t even know existed.

Step 4: Practice > Perfect

• Sign up for Career Treks—site visits or virtual tours of companies you may want to work for.
• Apply to internships even if you’re unsure—interviews are great practice, and each one makes you sharper.
• Volunteer for on-campus projects or leadership roles. They build your CV and boost your confidence.

Mindset tip: The goal isn’t just to get an internship. It’s to grow into someone who knows what they want and can articulate it.

ESSEC’s Career Services isn’t a one-time stop. It’s your partner throughout your journey. The more you put in, the more it gives back. Whether you’re eyeing an MNC, a startup, or something in between, use what’s here. Because success doesn’t start after you graduate. It starts now.
