"I have been trying to get an internship and the process has baffled me. People with contacts in big companies have an unfair advantage even though they are not that skilled. I tried to approach my alumni regarding referrals but to no avail."
“我一直在寻找实习机会，但是这个过程让我饱受打击。那些认识大公司里的员工的人拥有了不公平的优势即使他们能力并不强。我尝试与我的校友联系以获得推荐，但毫无答复。”
No process of hiring is completely fair. That's the truth and the sooner you accept it the better you can prepare yourself.
实际上，没有任何一个招聘的过程是完全公平的，关键在于你越早接受这个现实你就能越快装备自己。
Every organisation has its own recruitment process and it's wrong on your part to call everyone's process unfair. People with contacts in big companies do have advantage but I don't think that's unfair. They have devoted their time networking with employees of big companies.
每家公司机构都有其自己的招聘流程，所以你认为每个人的招聘流程都不公平是不对的。没错，认识大公司里的员工确实是一个优势但我并不认为那是不公平的。因为他们也付出了自己的时间与大公司的员工打交道。
Even though there are some people who get internships with contacts, BUT, let me tell you this:
即使有人因为认识大公司里的员工而获得实习机会，但我会告诉你：
No Big company will hire someone for the sole reason that they are recommended.
没有任何一家大公司会因为单一的推荐理由而雇用一个人。
In case of jobs, the contacts can only take you up to the interview table, you have to prove yourself there.
就求职招聘来说，联系人只能帮助你进入面试阶段，余下的步骤还得靠你自己证明自己的实力。
There might be some exceptions where the recommendations work, but it is not significant in proportion.
也许确实有例外，推荐人的帮助会产生影响，但这并不影响招聘的比例。
Don't let that feeling depress you, and stop you from trying.
别让这种消极的感觉影响和阻碍你。
Remember, getting an internship is NOT the only thing that matters.
请谨记，获得实际机会并不是唯一的决定因素。
Those who get from recommendation and without talent would eventually find it too tough to bear, and would eventually drop off, or under-perform.
那些只有推荐优势没有个人实力的人最终会遭人嫌弃，也许最终就会淘汰，或工作表现糟糕。
You can always get good internships, if you have a good enough profile, interesting skills and good commitment.
如果你有一份足够出色的个人履历，过人的特长以及良好信用，你总能获得好的实习机会。
If you didn't get an internship somewhere, it means something else, something better is waiting for you.
如果你无法获得某家公司的实习机会，那就意味着其他的机会，更好的机会正在等着你。
Some people are lucky to have a close relative in a big company but in the long run your luck will help you also in some situations. So it's all even. Networking is essential to get good referrals.
有些人很幸运，有亲友在大公司里工作，但从长远来看，你的运气也会在这些场合里给你发挥重要作用。所以，这就打平了。社交联系是获取好的推荐人是必要因素。
