Thinking of doing an internship

It is that time of the year again when students are done with the exams and pondering over what to do next. The students who have appeared for final year exams or those who are in senior college usually have a very typical question – what do we do after exams? Is it a good idea to do internship anywhere or first complete the education and then take some work experience?

People typically think that if students start with an internship: some misconceptions:

     * They lose focus on their current mode of studies.
     * They get fascinated by the work culture which tends to de-motivate them to get back to studies.
     * If they get absorbed in the organization/office, the students do not want to continue with studies and hence the growth gets hampered.
