As we enter internship recruiting season, I need every student to remember that you are NOT the sum of your internship Not whether you get one Not the company name on your offer Not how early you secure one And definitely not how your opportunity compares to someone else's Recruiting season can make it REALLY easy to feel like you're behind You open LinkedIn and someone just accepted an offer Then someone else... Then someone else 😭 Meanwhile, you're still applying, interviewing, networking, or maybe even trying to figure out what you want to do next summer And I'm here to tell you that's okay Your worth has never and should never be dependent on what you produce or where you work And your path doesn't suddenly become less valuable because it looks different from someone else's Maybe you land the big internship Maybe you intern at a company nobody in your friend group has heard of Maybe you work with a local business Maybe you spend the summer building something of your own There are SO many ways to gain experience What matters is that you keep showing up Keep applying Keep having conversations Keep building your skills And most importantly, don't lose confidence in yourself if your opportunity takes a little longer to find you Your timeline is YOUR timeline Best of luck out there bookies. Your big sister is cheering for you 🫶🏾 P.S. I never smile, with my teeth, so that's how y'all know I believe in y'all! You go! #tipswithtaylor #internships

Normalize this if you’re in your 20s: Being bad at something you really want to be good at I've been a high achiever for most of my life I'm used to putting in the work and eventually seeing the result Study hard, get the grade Work hard, get the opportunity Put in the effort, see the progress But lately, I've been learning that sometimes life doesn't work that neatly For the past year, one of the hardest things I've had to do has been trying to get better at GRE math And I know that probably sounds small But there is something incredibly humbling about wanting to be good at something Working really hard to be good at it And still not being where you want to be Especially when you're balancing that goal alongside a career, responsibilities, and everything else happening in your life Normalize struggling with something that other people seem to understand easily Normalize needing more time Normalize trying a different approach Normalize admitting that you just aren't good at something yet Because I think one of the hardest lessons to learn as a high achiever is that effort doesn't always create immediate results Sometimes you can do everything you're supposed to do and still need more practice More patience More time And maybe the real growth isn't just finally getting good at the thing Maybe it's learning that your ability to struggle with something doesn't make you any less capable That being a beginner doesn't erase everything else you're good at And that sometimes the things that take us the longest to learn teach us the most about ourselves along the way So right now, I'm learning to be okay with being a work in progress Even when I really, really wish the progress would hurry up 😂 We're normalizing being bad at something long enough to eventually get better at it ✨ PS: Shadow is my emotional support dog and has been helping me on this journey of normalizing all the things in my 20s🐾 #tipswithtaylor

As someone who’s been working with students for nearly half a decade, I’m starting to notice patterns across universities, majors, and other areas when it comes to the issues I’m seeing with students’ resumes. In being the person who provides resources, I wanted to take the time to share a few tips to get students moving in the right direction. Does your resume have to be perfect? No. But should it at least be formatted correctly? Yes. Hoping this video is able to help at least one person out there. And remember folks, your resume should only be ONE PAGE, unless you have 10+ years of experience or are working in a specialized field getting an advanced degree. All resources including resume templates, action verb lists, and formatting tips are linked in my Linktree. To all the recruiters, hiring managers, or hiring managers in my network, what else would you recommend students do to improve their resumes? #tipswithtaylor #resumes
