basically i've reached a fork in the road...and cannot decide which route to choose....
today in my lecture we were talking about internships and work placements...
these are very good for gaining crucial work experience...so i've been told....and you may agree with that...
problem is i have two options...whether to look for (by myself) a summer internship programme...(after year 2 ends)...that lasts for about 6 weeks...maybe 10 at the most...
the other option is to (and this is what my lecturer and our uni recommends) take a year out and apply for a work placement...and i think they help u find the company to work for?!..not sure...but a year's worth of experience sounds better than 10 weeks..
thing is i want to finish my education as soon as possible...taking the year out would mean i would have to the third/final year a year later...
as long as these work placements dont require me to work 9-5 mon - fri...there isnt anything wrong with it...
tell me what you think is better...in terms of long term benefits...or which would employers much likely prefer....
