Hi guys,
I wanted to get your thoughts about a certain strategy for getting an internship. Let’s say you have no geographic limitations. If you know what type of site you want (e.g. a college counseling center or a prison, etc), and you have fewer hours than a typical applicant (under 400). You search for sites that fit the category you want, and where you meet the hours requirement all across the country, and you apply to the ones in more obscure locations (like the Dakotas, Alaska, or rural Kentucky).
Do you think this would help guarantee an internship placement, assuming you can make a reasonable case for good fit at each site?
