Episode 45: Interview with Jeniffer Peeples

IN THIS EPISODE

My guest today is Jeniffer Peeples. Jeniffer has so many elements to her dietetic internship application experience that I think many other students can relate to: she’s a non-traditional student; she knew for certain whether a face-to-face or distance program would be the best fit for her; she’s a military spouse; and she found herself in a whole new city and area when she starting looking into internship options. Oh, and she got her *perfect* match in 2nd round of Spring 2021. She truly has a story about how everything worked out!

Jeniffer’s experience really shows that with a certainty of what you’re looking for and being open to ALL options, things can work out in very unexpected ways. I’m so glad she’s sharing and that you can use her tips in your application process as well. Everything we talk about can be found in the show notes, so check there to make sure you’ve got all the resources that are available.

Here are some of the things we cover in this episode:

1.    The elements that Jeniffer knew were very important to her for her internship

2.  How Jeniffer found programs to apply to given her criteria, being a military spouse, and living in a brand new area

3. How Jeniffer navigated second round when she decided it was worth going fort rather than waiting another year - and got a perfect match

YOUR ACTION STEP
