Internships

Since many colleges finish classes as early as May, now is the time to start looking for a summer internship. Here is a list of websites that aggregate internships available from various companies:
https://www.aftercollege.com/
https://www.wayup.com/

You can also search websites that list full time jobs, just make sure to use "internship" as one of your keywords:
https://www.indeed.com/
https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/

It is also necessary to look at the website of a particular company that you are interested in. For example:
http://www.apple.com/jobs/us/students.html
https://careers.google.com/students/

What employers want to see is:
1) Good communication skills,
2) Passion for their company and their products,
3) Samples of work you have done, including school projects.

Textbooks in the library

The Foothill library has many textbooks available for you to borrow. It is always good to have more than one book on a subject while you are learning it!
