· At the end of your internship you need to make sure you really put your best foot forward so you can be remembered by the company and even possibly get hired once you graduate. It is important that you stay in contact with your boss and all the people that you worked on projects for. You can email them about once a semester or quarter and let them know how things are going and see what is new at the company. This shows them that you’re really interested in staying connected and they will remember you for it.
1. Keep in touch with your colleagues, even if you don’t want to work there full time.
2. Before you go, make sure your coworkers have your contact information, and if you feel comfortable, keep in touch with them through social networking sites.
3. Send thank you notes to all your coworkers. It will probably take you a long time, but even if you helped a colleague with just one project, a note will help you be remembered by many people in the company and will increase the likelihood of getting hired when you graduate.
4. Try to meet up with your coworkers if you will be at conferences, networking events or in the same neighborhood. While technology makes keeping in touch easy, an in-person meeting is still a great idea to keep the relationship growing.
5. Ask for a final evaluation to elicit feedback. While you should be getting feedback on the projects you are assigned, try to schedule a meeting with your supervisor at the end of your internship to talk about how things went, what you can work on and how you can improve.
