    An internship is like a special learning experience where you work with a company or organization to learn about a job or field you're interested in. It is a bit like trying on a job to see if it fits you. During an internship, you get to do real tasks and projects, just like a real worker, but you also have people to help and guide you. It is a chance to learn new skills, make connections, and understand what a job is really like. Internships can be short or long, and they help you decide if you want to do that kind of work in the future.

    An internship is a period of work experience offered by an employer to give students and graduates exposure to the working environment, often within a specific industry, which relates to their field of study. It can be of a week, month or for a year.
    Internship is basically altogether a new experience where you learn how work is done in real world . You work in teams, acquire new skills.
