Psych major with language skills: Internships for public sector entry.

The user is a psychology major and Chinese-English interpreter struggling with the 'experience paradox' for entry-level jobs in the public sector or school district. Their current part-time interpreter role provides valuable language and communication skills. The most effective strategy is to leverage their student status to secure internships within government agencies or school districts. These internships often provide the necessary 'entry-level experience' and can frequently lead to full-time employment, bridging the gap between academic qualifications and job requirements. Networking and volunteering within the target fields will also create valuable connections.
