An internship is a pre-professional work that provides students with the opportunity togain experience in a particular area field Most internships are very beneficial and itopen up many opportunities for the intern It is the same for my internship where I canget new opportunities and experiences that are not available at University Internshipsprovide a visible representation of higher education that is often missing from lecturesand textbooks Nothing fully compares to the experience of being immersed in a fast-paced professional environment, even if this can be communicated to some extentthrough class assignments, case studies, and clinical observation

The most benefit of the internship is that we can refine Career Goals During ourinternship, we can find that a particular field or career path we once consideredalluring is no longer our passion Early awareness of this allows us to alter ourdirection before becoming stuck on a particular job route Later on, it might be muchharder to make these modifications There has never been a better opportunity tochange our strategy and pursue a career or industry that truly ignites our enthusiasm

I love the translation industry because translators play a very important role becausethey are the bridge between the two parties and even a small mistake can lead tounintended consequences This is a profession that has a great influence on thepolitical and cultural harmony between countries With extensive integration in manyfields, the demand for labor in the translation industry is always very high Thetranslation profession will bring us a very high income

From the above benefits and reasons I realized that ATV is the most suitableinternship for me Moreover, at ATV I can apply what I was learned in the real world.Internships offer me the chance to apply what I am learning into action, in a real-worldenvironment This helps me better understand the theories and strategies I have beenreading about, cementing the learning process and giving me greater focus

It was my good luck to take my internship at Satellite Team, Program Department, AnGiang Radio - Television Station, a prestigious place that gave me many advantages

When doing this kind of program, the translators' duties are to listen to and translateexactly every word, every sentence being said in the video It is very difficult and it isalso my problem I had listen word-by-word and listened many times There wasseveral new words that I did not meet in class Therefore, I must listened to themcarefully then I looked up in the dictionary to find out the new words However, therewere still some words that even I had learned and listened to many times and I hadlooked up in the dictionary, I could not find them The last way I might do was to ask
