The Business Incubator

Over the last week I have been trying to find a internship, which I can use my skill effectively while gaining valuable experience. It has been hard to send out e-mails, cover letters, and resumes and not get a "yes" or "no." My roommate is telling me that they wait to give a response, but I can't afford to wait much longer.

This week I attended a meeting with WVU Career Service Center to get some help. After meeting with their representative and gains some names and number, I preceded to try and contact some of the people they gave me. I have not had any luck reaching these people. The one internship I really want is with WV Writers Inc. We both share the goal of helping develop creative writing skills within the community. I know this will be a good opportunity, but can't reach their intern coordinator.

Running out of options, I decided to try the WVU Business Incubator. I have tried once already and was met with cold silence. This time though I decided to e-mail the individual heads of each business in the Incubator. I sent an e-mail to any name I can find asking about a possible internship. I am hoping for either Datacasters Inc. (http://www.datacaster.com/) or SportsWeave (http://www.sportsweave.com/) to respond in favor of my request.

Many of my fellow classmates have found their internship and are working diligently for success. I have been tracking the blogs and been gaining an understanding of how to write my own once I gain and internship. I am a little worried that I may be too late to produce enough material for a A+ final portfolio, but that only means I'll have to work twice as hard in half the time.
