BEFORE the internship is over and updating your resume, you need to impress in the internship. For companies, internships are not only an altruistic approach to get people to talk about a company, but a venue to see how candidates do before hiring them for a full-time role.

2 Maintain your network

Your internship gave you the opportunity to meet and work with professionals in the food industry, such as mentors, managers, colleagues, and clients. Don’t let these connections fade away after your internship. Keep in touch with them via email, LinkedIn, or social media. Express your gratitude, share your updates, and ask for advice or referrals. You never know when a contact might open a door for you or recommend you for a job.

3 Seek feedback and improvement

Even if your internship is over, your learning journey is not. Seek feedback from your internship supervisor, mentors, or peers on your performance, strengths, and areas for improvement. Use this feedback to identify your gaps and set goals for your professional development. Look for online courses, workshops, webinars, or podcasts that can help you enhance your knowledge and skills in Food Science. Stay updated on the latest trends, innovations, and challenges in the food industry.

Internship is a small part of one’s career that span across decades. Yet, the learnings of that phase may significantly contribute to the choice of career path. The take-away lessons and feedback from the supervisor/mentor is vital for self improvement and it should not just be limited to the internship phase. In fact, periodical feedback is necessary in every phase of the career. After all, learning is a life-long journey and regardless of the ups and downs, moulds us to be better versions of ourselves.

4 Explore your options

Your internship may have given you a clear idea of what kind of job you want in the food industry, or it may have opened your eyes to new possibilities. Either way, it’s important to explore your options and research the different roles, sectors, and employers that match your interests and goals. Use online platforms, such as Indeed, Glassdoor, or Food Science Careers, to browse job listings, read reviews, and compare salaries. You can also attend career fairs, networking events, or webinars to learn more about the opportunities and expectations in the food industry.

6 Follow up and be patient

After you’ve applied and interviewed for a job, don’t forget to follow up and be patient. Send a thank-you note to the hiring manager, reiterating your interest and qualifications for the job. Keep track of your applications and follow up with the employers after a reasonable period of time. However, don’t be too pushy or desperate, as this may hurt your chances. Remember that finding a job takes time and effort, so be persistent and optimistic.

When one season in our career ends, we tend to move on to the next without introspective reflection. I believe that part of pursuing my future career, also includes reflecting on the lessons I have learnt and the experience I gained and what this means in terms of my future career. Although my internship was in a different field that I intended to enter, I have had such amazing experiences and opportunities to learn from highly educated and esteemed scientists in the field. One piece of advice from people close to me was that no one can take away what you learn while working.
