What fascinates you? Are you driven to learn about the internet, technology or business? Do you want to be head-and-shoulders above the crowd in college admissions? Are you looking for fresh challenges and new opportunities?

Here's a daring idea that is sure to help you on your path to Stanford. Make yourself available as an intern!

This is a lot easier than you might think. Of course, it takes some work and initiative from you, but it is worth the trouble. It looks really good on your college applications, and it can help you to elevate your professional and career interests to the next level.

Here are some tips on getting a great intern position:

1. Google local start-ups. Send them e mails with a brief description of your experience and your background. Tell them you are seeking a part-time or summer internship.

Stick with local opportunities for two reasons. First, they will be the most convenient for you. Second, you are more likely to find work that really interests you.

2. Search some of your favorite online services. Facebook, Imeem, and Myspace are good examples. Look through these websites and find human resources staff members and recruiters. Let them know what you can offer them and what you are looking for. Make sure they know you are looking for a volunteer position and are willing to work in exchange for the experience.

Start-ups are always looking for help. They are really eager to find free help. If you are willing to put your best foot forward and show this kind of initiative as a teenager, you are sure to be an impressive job candidate when you are ready to begin your career. Don't be nervous about doing this. You have nothing to lose! The worst thing that will happen is they will turn you down. Then you can just try again!

Your college application will be very strong when internships are listed on it. An internship shows that you have leadership abilities, initiative, and work experience. Besides that, you can use your internship experiences in your discussions during alumni interviews and on your college essays.

Finally, and best of all, when you perform well as an intern, you can count on having a strong, one-of-a-kind recommendation. Think about it. Most college applicants will have a few recommendations from their high school teachers. You will have an impressive recommendation from your CEO! Everybody wins with this situation. It is a great way to get a leg-up into Harvard.

Always brainstorm and use your most creative ideas. Fresh new ideas are the ones that get you where you want to go. If you have a great idea and want some feedback on it, run it by me at john AT hopelesstoharvard.com.
