Once you've found a listing, flyer, or post for an open internship, you will need to make contact with the employer. Generally, postings will let you know the best method of communication to use. If unspecified, calling is best so long as you can sound professional and confident. Bring or mail them their requested materials (such as a cover letter and resume) and ask any initial questions you may have. The more they feel like they know you before the interview, the better your chances will be. You will want to do whatever you can to impress the people you interview with. This can be done through the language that you use, the clothing that you wear, and how you approach questions.  Make sure you look and sound professional and confident. Speak in definitive terms when you tell them about yourself: I can do this, I will do that. Don't use terms like probably and maybe. Research the company before interviewing. Find out their values and buzzwords. Use references to those values and buzzwords in your interview. Get acquainted with common interview questions and how to answer them. There are many standard questions that tend to get asked and how you answer them is important. Employers want to see that you are capable, determined, and invested in the position you want. This tells them that you will work hard and be a good employee. Be persistent in your communications and proactively seek the things you want. If you get an offer, make sure to take a moment to think about it before accepting, unless you are certain this job is for you.  If you accept, you have now made a commitment. If you have had other interviews, you may want to ask the employer for time to decide on the offer, so you can then contact the other employers you've interviewed with and see if they can make you an offer sooner.  This way, you can choose between two offers rather than only going with the first one you get. Be careful though: being unsure about taking the position won’t look good to all employers!

summary: Make contact. Ace the interview. Be persistent and proactive. Accept the offer.

White, granulated sugar is the default for simple syrup, but you do have other options. Superfine sugar reduces the risk of crystallization. A raw brown sugar such as turbinado or demerara creates a brown, molasses-flavored syrup good for rum or bourbon cocktails. Do not use confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar). This usually contains cornstarch, which does not dissolve in water. The syrup will be cloudy or grainy. Measure the sugar and water and combine in a saucepan. Use an equal amount of both ingredients for a basic syrup. For a more concentrated syrup, use up to twice as much sugar as water.  A more concentrated syrup has a higher risk of crystallizing back into solids, but will last longer in the fridge. Some bartenders prefer a concentrated syrup because it can sweeten a cocktail without adding too much water. For greater accuracy, measure ingredients by weight on a kitchen scale. Using volume measurements (cups or milliliters) won't cause major issue, but you'll end up with about ⅞ the amount of sugar. Turn on the heat under your sugar-water mixture. Stir until all the sugar crystals have dissolved. The sugar usually dissolves within a few minutes, but a large batch may take longer.  Do not let the mixture boil. If you lose too much water, the sugar may not be able to dissolve. For very concentrated syrups (at least a 2:1 ratio of sugar to water), stir the last bits of water gently. Too much stirring when the maximum amount of sugar has dissolved can cause crystals to reform. A single grain of sugar left in the syrup can create a large mass of solid crystals. If you see any sugar left on the side of the pot, brush it down to the syrup using a wet pastry brush. Alternatively, just put the lid on the pot for a few minutes, and the condensed water should run down the sides and clean them. Because the lid traps most of the water vapor, it's all right if the syrup boils for a short time while the lid is on. To be safe, stick with a brief simmer. it will be ready to store once it reaches room temperature. If the sugar crystallizes when it cools, either too much water boiled away, or not all the sugar dissolved. Add a little water and heat it up again. Bring a small, separate pot of water to a boil. Once boiled, pour directly into a clean jar or bottle. Pour boiling water over the lid of the container as well. Sterilizing the container will reduce the chance that your syrup re-crystallizes, and prolong shelf life. Unless using immediately, store in a clear container so you can watch for signs of mold. Dump the hot water out of the container, and immediately pour in the room temperature syrup. Fasten the lid and store in the refrigerator.  A 1:1 syrup stays good for about one month. A 2:1 syrup stays good for about six months. To keep your syrup useful for much longer, stir in a spoonful of high-proof vodka.
summary: Choose your sugar. Measure water and sugar. Heat and stir. Wash sugar off the side. Set aside the syrup to cool. Sterilize a container. Store the syrup.
