Is there a limit to the number of internships that you can apply for? And do you apply for each seperatly?

 

[DisneyScrappingMom]

They like if you limit it to 3 internships, but there is no set rule. I applied for more than 3 because I feel that I am well qualified for more than 3 of them

i am so sorry to bother everyone with this stuff but i am trying to complete the application process and I pasted my resume in the text box but it completley messed up the format of the resume and i just wanted to make sure that it wasnt just me. I uploaded it to, does that mean that they can look at the formatted copy?

My resume did the same thing, so I went into the box and reformatted it to fit nicely. I uploaded mine as well, since my little graphic didn't show up in the box. I'm thinking I read somewhere that what is in the box gets sent through a program that sorts it out by keyword, but if you are being considered, they pull the downloaded copy.

I keep two versions of my resume: one formatted nicely and one text-only version because most companies with online applications want that one as well. It's worth pasting into something like Notepad first and formatting it, and then copy-pasting it into the box on the website.

Thank you so much! I have no clue what to ask for stating salary though. I dont want to ask to high but i need money to live off of. i dont know the range of what they pay for PI's. Any suggestions

The starting salary part of the application is not relevent to PIs; the salary is pretty much set.

 

[Ellagirl]

Again, i am horribly sorry to bug everyone with these questions about applying but did everyone else include a cover letter with their application even if it didnt ask for one?

Yes, it is a good idea.

Congrats! Did your interviewer say whether or not s/he was moving you forward and do they tell you which ones? I'm trying to decide if I'm going to Casting while I'm there next week to pursue that avenue and how it might impact the PI. If my interviewer tells me I'm moving on, I may not visit Casting just yet, but if not, then I'll definitely be going. What to do, what to do!!!

How many did you apply for? I've applied for 5, but am wondering if she'll ask me to trim my list...
