Choosing the right internship can be a challenge, but less so when you have your career goals lined up. The interviewer wants to know why you are applying for this particular internship. Your response will allow them to determine if you've done your research about the company and if your career goals align with the internship opportunity. Share how you think the role will strengthen specific skills, give you exposure to other careers or professionals, provide you with on-the-job experience, or allow you to get your foot in the door at your dream company. Whatever your reason is, share it with enthusiasm and hope!
