Product details

This authoritative, hands‑on book provides doctoral‑level psychology students with all the resources they need to successfully navigate the internship application process.

This is an incomparable resource for prospective interns and it would be folly to start the internship application process without it. It not only offers perceptive advice and guidance, it also provides a level of detail that will prepare anxious applicants well and set them at ease. This edition is essential given the changes in the process. ― Doody’s Five-Star Review

Topics include the most common reasons why people don’t secure a position; how many sites to apply to; rank ordering your list of programs; writing essays, cover letters, and your curriculum vitae; securing strong letters of recommendation; preparing for interviews; sending thank you notes; receiving Match results; and more.

Since the third edition of this book was released, the online application process and the internship marketplace have undergone significant changes, such as the growing importance of accreditation. This fourth edition provides updated information that will help your applications stand out to your internship programs of choice. Advice is also offered to directors of clinical training so they can guide and support students during this challenging process.

This resource is provided to students by the American Psychological Association of Graduate Students—the premier group committed to representing, leading, advocating, and developing resources for graduate psychology students.

Great product. I recommend. If you are a current student, check whether your college library has this within their collection or can get it from another library on loan. I put the cost of this book toward internship application costs.

Get it!

I used this book to help me apply to an accredited psychology doctoral internship. The authors provide assistance on writing cover letters and essays, as well as interview help. The essay examples were especially helpful. In the end, I matched with my top choice.

Very helpful
