Gaining professional experiences before graduation has enormous benefits — and not just in the ways that you think. Of course, one of the biggest pluses is increasing your chances of gaining employment upon graduation. In fact, according to a 2019 study from the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), those with an internship were 16% more likely to have a job offer when finished with college.
Pre-professional experiences most commonly include internships but can also include freelance work or part-time jobs in a related field.
