Going from internship to full-time role, that's the goal! We explain some techniques and strategies to get you there in this weeks episode of the Work In Sports podcast.Hi It’s Brian - before we get into todays’ episode - I want you all to check out our new Work in Sports Academy courses - you all reach out to me daily with questions about your sports career - and I love it, but it also showed me there is a huge demand for sports career advice.  You all want to know about subjects like gaining the right experience to impress employers, building your network, mastering your resume, learning how to interview… so we built some incredible online courses full of videos articles, worksheets, cheat sheets and more.Check out workinsports.com/gameplan for more information on all four of our available courses.

I didn’t consider the podcast, my coming guests, questions I should ask, angles I should delve into or anything really. I completely unplugged and it was glorious. Yes, I still peeked at my phone and checked in on sports news, but that’s because this is the industry I love, I want to keep up, I don’t feel obligated to do that. So yes, I checked in on Kawhi and Kemba - and then I went back to being outdoors and out of reach. I was never good at this when I was younger, I never unplugged and it damaged my relationships.  I was never present, I was always somewhere else thinking my mental presence was necessary at all moments. That not the subject for today’s podcast, but I just wanted to let you all know, in the future, you won’t remember the extra phone call or the micromanaging of a project, but you will remember the experiences you are fully present for. Years from now my kids will remember sliding down a 60 foot rock into a 55 degree river in the Pisgah National Forest...and so will I. Don’t starve yourself of experiences in the name of grinding out a work life.Alright, preach complete.   Today’s questions comes in from Marnie from Mississippi -- “Hi Brian, I love the Work in Sports podcast. I have learned so much. I signed up for the online courses and I am already blown away. The depth and step by step advice you share is just so helpful. I have so much more confidence now I am making the decisions that will change my career![Ok some of you may be thinking - that is self-indulgent of Brian to read a rousing review of his new online courses and you know what I’d say to that… you are 100% right, it is self-indulgent. And I want more of you to purchase the course, so of course I’m going to share when people like it!]Ok back on track -- Marnie’s question - i just landed and internship at an organization i have always wanted to work for. I am so hopeful this turns into a full-time role. I know I am supposed to focus on doing my absolute best in the role first, but how else can i try to turn this experience into a full time role?”Marnie - great question and thanks again for joining on for our online course, and for being such a fan of the podcast. I’m glad you find the courses to be unique and powerful, but just a repeat or overlap.But let’s get to the basics of your question...
