Microsoft Internship?

Career Opportunities & Internships
1

<p>I'm caught in a tough decision for what I am going to do this summer. I have just been offered an internship at Microsoft in the Global Accounts Division. This would really help me get into college because I want to major in business.</p>

<p>I have a problem with my summer schedule though. I am the DECA Area 4 President for WA state and that requires me to go to several camps during the summer. Microsoft says that they need me during the whole summer.</p>

<p>So I am caught between whether I should resign from my position and go with Microsoft or stay in my position as President of a widely recognized organization.</p>

<p>Both have great benefits. Also, I already have a job as a web developer for the new <a href="http://www.teenjobs.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.teenjobs.org&lt;/a> so it's not like I am desperate for work experience. However, I also have another leadership position as Senior Class President, so it's not like I am desperate for extracuriculars.</p>

<p>Microsoft or DECA President?</p>

<p>Microsoft....its a great opportunity...too bad i never had any opportunities like that...</p>

<p>so I should just forfeit my presidency? It will be really hard for DECA to replace me, and I would be letting a lot of people down.</p>

<p>Hey Rob! I'm really interested in the Microsoft High School Internship program too. Can you pm me more information about it or something. I was going to apply this year but I was too young:( So I am at NASA SHARP instead. Congrats on getting the internship though, I heard its really competitive!</p>
