Do you find yourself wondering if you have what it takes to make it all work
as a full-time student with a part-time job and an internship?
Some people may tell you you're even crazy for trying, they might think that
you need to focus on your studies more, or stop trying to grow up so fast and
just enjoy being a college student, or if you really need to make the money you
should just pick a job over an unpaid internship. Well guess what? This video is
part of a miniseries that I'm doing on the truth about internships, and the
truth is you CAN do it all, and you can do it all well. Stick around for my
advice on how you can not only manage, but kick ass, as a student with both a
part-time job and an internship. Hey there! I'm Jenna Rein from
theinternhustle.com, and this is Initiative Muscle Monday. Helping you to start each
week with an intentional step toward a successful future. Let's do this! Like I
said, you can do it all. Student, part-time job and internship. And the beautiful
thing about learning to juggle multiple responsibilities while you're still in
college, is that you're going to be a time management pro by the time you
graduate. You aren't going to be fazed by the demands of the real world that don't
really cater to the student lifestyle anymore. And this isn't the case for a
lot of college recent grads. You're going to have a huge advantage as you go about
tackling life after college. So, assuming that you want to know how to manage it
all well, let's dive into some of my best practices. Don't do all new, all at once.
Ideally if you're starting a new internship, you're not starting a new
part-time job at the same time. Even for someone who is very seasoned in their
career, that's a lot to juggle at once. New and unknown often equals stress and
anxiety. Let's just try not to double down on those feelings. Shall we? Try to
get a head start on a part-time job at least a couple months before you start
an internship. Allow yourself to settle in and establish positive relationships
with your manager and your coworkers. Because once you start your internship
you may need to ask your fellow co-workers for a favor every
now and then to cover you while you're at your internship. So building these
solid relationships ahead of time can be a huge advantage. Now you can also
revisit past part-time jobs that you already have some familiarity with. While
I was in college at Ohio State, my first two summer internships were
back near my hometown in the Chicago suburbs. Now because my internships were
so close to home I was able to secure a part-time job at the same place that I
worked at while I was in high school. It was a known entity for me and it took
away a lot of the stress of having to adapt to a new work environment at the
same time that I was learning the ropes as a new intern. Optimize your schedule.
Now here's where taking just a little bit of action upfront, and planning ahead,
can make all the difference in your success. Getting a handle on your
calendar, and how you manage your days, is a necessity if you're moving between
school, work, and an internship on a regular basis. For starters, try to consolidate
your schedule where you can. So can you start stacking classes on certain days
of the week and then your work and internship schedule on others? Or maybe
you take primarily night classes for a semester so that you have your days
free for work and internship. Take a look at the big picture and just play a
little calendar magic to see if you can optimize by consolidating. Now, once you
have some more clarity on how you're spending your days each week, add in the
details. This is one of my keys to time management. I calendar everything -- like my
commute time, lunch, workouts, my social life -- you name it.
At first it seems a little intense, but I promise once you get it all mapped out
it will help you stay on track throughout your day. And you're going to
feel so much more in control. And control takes away a lot of stress. If you're
looking for more specifics on my time management system, and how I use my
calendar as a time management tool, then check out my blog post titled My #1
Time Management Hack for Interns over on theinternhustle.com. I will also
link to it in the description below this video.
Lock down your support system. Like lock it down. We all have people in our
life who we go to for different things. The friend who has the perfect
relationship advice, or your mom who helps you out when you're trying to
remember for the 15th time how to wash your favorite sweater. But who do you go
to when school or professional pressures build up and you just need to chat? For
some it's a parent or a sibling who knows you best and can help bring you
back to normal when things get a little crazy. For others it may be an academic
adviser who's walked the exact path that you're hoping to follow. And
sometimes it's a best friend who's on the exact same journey that you're
currently on and you guys can commiserate together. Bottom line, you
need to have your phone a friend ready. Starting an internship can be a
stressful time, and as I mentioned before the unknown is enough to shake up anyone
a little bit. So when you combine an internship with a job and school, well
just expect some more stress. But that's not to say that you shouldn't do it. Look,
the whole point of me creating this video is to show you that you absolutely
CAN do it. But I'm also saying that a little support from someone else can
actually go a long way. Whether it's the occasional pep talk,
specific advice in the moment or just someone to listen as you recap your new
and exciting days -- find your support system. There you go! it is possible to
work a part-time job and an internship at the same time as being a full-time
college student. Just be smart in your approach and use my advice to help set
yourself up for success. Now I speak from experience, it can be challenging but you
will develop strong habits and skills that are going to help you navigate life
and career after college. If this video gave you some new insights

channel and join you back here next week for my final week of the truth about
internships videos. I have one more internship mythbuster to
share with you, and I'm saving the best for last. In support of your hustle -- I'll
see you next Monday.
