The Fall 2025 Internship Panel Talk took place on Wednesday, the 22nd of October, in room B105, where students assembled to share and acquire new knowledge that would help SUNY Korea students throughout their internship journey. Representing four different fields, the panel shared their expert opinions, tips, and tricks when it came to attending and succeeding in internships. Jiwoo Kim (Computer Science, Developer Intern), Onhyuck Choi (Technological Systems Management, PS Analytics Intern), Chaeyun Jang (Fashion Design, Production Team Intern), and Gahyun Lee (Fashion Business Management, Marketing Team Intern) were the main speakers for the discussion.
Each panelist shared how they researched, applied, and interviewed for internships, how they dealt with rejected applications, and how they managed to get their work done once accepted as an intern. The panelists spoke about resume building, networking, getting involved in the workplace, and company culture.
After the students presented, there was a 30-minute question and answer session where students could draw on some of their own personal experiences with the panelists. They were able to ask for more individualized support and career advice about interviewing, developing a professional portfolio, and the application process related to searching for an international internship.
It's worth mentioning that programs like the Fall 2025 Internship Panel Talk can, and do, serve a meaningful function in their engagement with students at various points in their academic timeline. They provide support for students in various junctures such as applying for their first internship or building their professional experiences while studying abroad. A panel like this also provides students with some practical advice on the career paths they considered and even endorses that sense of peer support as students approach their next stage on their trajectory into the workplace.
