Do THIS to Hit the Ground Running at Your Sports Internship (or Job)

First impressions can make or break your chances of landing a job or internship. They also play a role in how you are perceived once you have started with an organization. On today’s episode of the WorkInSports Podcast, Brandal from Texas wants to know how to have a successful internship experience from day one:

“Hey Brian, I’m someone who likes to visualize before taking on challenges, it’s always worked for me playing sports. I visualize myself running a route, how my defender is set up, how I’ll break press, and then I see the ball in the air towards my hands … it’s almost like I can feel it in my mind.

“If you couldn’t guess, I’m a student-athlete who plays wide receiver right now. I’m not going to make the pros, so I’ve been focusing on my career in sports while having as much fun as possible. I have an internship starting in the spring, my first one ever. What can I start to visualize and prepare for to get me in the right frame of mind?”
