Peers: Are people who know you very well. They would be your classmates, co-workers, or friends who are also seeking internship opportunities. Try to share information with your classmates or friends who are also looking for internship opportunities and are sharing information with you. Your friends are your referrals, know your talent, will give you feedback, and will share the latest industry trends with you. Once you bring a promising team together and form an active job-hunting strategy, the shared connections, resources and spiritual support of your friends benefit you along your path.
