Keep in mind that “no” also sometimes means “try harder” or “try a different approach” when it comes to landing internships. In my internship search I have definitely come across multiple agencies where I had to call and speak to 3 or 4 different people before I could get anywhere. Sometimes hiring managers want you to show them that you are genuinely interested and really want to gain something from the position before they let you know everything they have to offer.

I never thought of it that way, but now I’m kind of excited to improve my portfolio and reapply to places I really want to work. Glad I saw this!

I love that you sent a hand-written thank you! I don’t recall ever getting that advice but I think I am definitely going to do that when applying for entry-level jobs. There’s something about snail mail that just says anything better and more sincerely than an e-mail!
