I'm back in the Carmonize seat getting ready for another season of "How-To's" and "What-Not-To-Do's" so check back often. As always, feel free to drop me a note regarding future topics to cover.

Hey Jonathan!
So I've spent most of my winter break just applying to agencies all around the nation because I desperately need an internship in advertising in order to graduate from SJSU.
I still feel lost though, is there anything else I can be doing besides just sending my resume and cover to all these agencies? What advice would you give me?
Sarah - Undoubtedly you've discovered the difficulty of finding an internhip during a recession. Have you tried youintern.com? There are several agencies posting internships for the summer.
You should also try calling agencies in addition to your emails. Remind me what position you're applying for so I can tailor the response a bit more.
Do you have any idea when MAIP semifinalists come out? They're supposed to come out this week! I'm so nervous and have been checking my email pretty much every 20 minutes! eeep!
Btw, what are you doing with advertising? I was curious since you seem to know so much about it!! :)
When I was looking for my first internship, I realized that there wasn't a place for students to turn to for some real advice on how to land advertising internships so I created Carmonize. I'm not an expert, but I've landed internships at BBH New York, Campbell Mithun and participated in the Multicultural Advertising Internship Program (MAIP) in 2008. What you'll find here is some useful information, personal stories and observations - all mixed up with a little wit and a lot of crass.
