    It's so interesting to hear about how internships work in general, because they're not really a big thing in our country actually! I for example went to cosmetology high school and the only thing we actually had was sort of a practical part of the curiculum at a beauty salon, and even that we only had for a total of 2 months across 4 years of high school. I sadly didn't learn much there, as I was sweeping the floors, making coffee and waiting for the time to pass. However, you do get sort of like a "try-out period" when signing an employement contract, where either you or the "work giver" can decide to terminate the contract. Also, excuse my lack of proper terms in this comment, it's late and I've been working all day and my brain is kinda fried. 😅 But once again, great & interesting video Zoe! 💜

    Hi Zoe, I'm just wondering. Should international students apply to jobs where they say something like this, "open to individuals who are eligible for employment in the United States and who would not require visa sponsorship now or in the future." I'm confused because I am eligible for employment thanks to the CPT and OPT program. :) Thanks.
