Hello everyone, I’m Sofia and I’m currently in my first year of global law undergraduate program in Bocconi University(Milan); I’m studying both common law and civil law systems.
How can I start in the right way? It’s next summer too early for an internship? I don’t want to be passive during my university path.
thank you all in advance
Hey
@Sofia V. , thank you so much for your question! And a huge welcome to the TCLA Community - we’re super
excited to have you here
It’s absolutely wonderful that you’re already thinking about the next steps of your career path. I would say next summer is not early at all, with regards to internship hunting. Most internship openings should be out now, or out soon in the next couple of months. It’s worth speaking to your university‘s careers service, as well as attending any workshops or events to help prepare you for writing applications and stepping into interviews.
In relating to starting in the right way also, I recommend setting some time aside every week for knowledge building. The more knowldge you have on how firms operate and how the financial world works, the better equipped you will be to apply to the
right opportunities, and spend your time efficiently.
Best of luck. Hope this helps, and feel free to send any more questions our way
