Who has not sung about the easy and fun student life, describing the beauty of the first independent steps after school. And thanks to this, the misconception is still widespread that the student is loaded only during the session. In fact, former schoolchildren will have to understand very soon that the educational process is rather complicated, and they will have to devote time to it all the time, and not just during the exams. And serious and purposeful students know that their future career will depend on the successful receipt of a diploma, and therefore they do their best not only to master the basic courses, but also to gain additional knowledge at conferences and seminars, which will be a plus when applying for a job. Of particular importance is pre-diploma practice, which not only marks the end of the educational process, but also serves as a link between theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
Undergraduate practice is the first work experience in a speci alty, and during its passage it is extremely important to leave a good impression about yourself and get recommendations. This is important because most organizations and businesses present this practice as a kind ofprobation. And after receiving a diploma, they will be happy to offer a former student a job. Therefore, it is best to take undergraduate practice in those organizations where there are vacancies, in this case, after graduation, you will not have to look for other offers on the labor exchange.
Of course, ideally, pre-graduation practice should be strictly in the speci alty, this will best help consolidate the knowledge gained. But this is not always possible, and in no case should this be a reason for frustration. The main goal of undergraduate practice is to learn how to work in one team, build relationships in a team competently, promote your opinion and respect other people's decisions. Therefore, the undergraduate practice of an economist, in fact, can take place in any organization related to the production or sale of goods and services, and not only in financial institutions.
In addition, future specialists need to remember that the experience gained in one workplace is not always useful for another. In organizations of the same type, there may be significant differences in the general style of work, filling out documentation, etc. For example, an undergraduate internship as an accountant completed at a bank will not help much in further work in an audit firm.
Pre-diploma practice forms in the future specialist such qualities as discipline and responsibility. These characteristics are valued by potential employers, astrade secrets can be learned, but responsibility cannot. It should be remembered that even if the undergraduate practice does not involve subsequent employment, it is important to get good recommendations after it ends. It is by them that a young specialist will be evaluated in the labor market, which means that an excellent review will serve as a guarantee of subsequent employment and a successful career start.
