Bidding is starting to open up for early OCI and job fairs, and I was wondering what to do with my internship this summer for my resume. I have a quick 2-line description of my current internship on my resume (name of organization, title, May 2012-August 2012). Do I need to go ahead and put some description of the work I've done so far? I wasn't sure if I needed to expand upon it yet since I still have 6 weeks left of the internship, and I didn't want to give a half-assed list of the work I've done.
TL;DR - how do you guys recommend listing your current internship on your resume? complete with description of work youve done so far, or just title and dates until summer is over.

Re: OCI Resume Question
I have a description of the work I've done so far. Some people are a month or more into the internships, so you should have had some substantial work by now.

Re: OCI Resume Question
The person I spoke to at our career services told me that since this was my only legal work experience, it should be the most descriptive thing on my resume. So the job I held for two years I described in one line, and for my current position I dragged it out for 4 lines and I had only worked here 2 weeks when I was given that suggestion.
