How to ask for leave from the leader during an internship?

October and November are here again. These two months are the time when companies are recruiting, and it is also the time when prospective graduates start their internships. During the internship process, there are many situations that the interns have to deal with themselves. For example, when it comes to asking for leave, as an intern, how should I ask for leave from my boss? Here are 3 small methods recommended for reference:

01 Prepare clear reasons

As an intern, if you want to stay in the internship unit, or get a good internship evaluate. Then everything you do must comply with the requirements of the other company, including asking for leave. Generally speaking. Interns have not yet been included in the official company staff and cannot be called regular employees. But when it comes to asking for leave, compared with regular employees, there is neither annual leave nor official leave. Each time you ask for leave, you need a suitable reason, rather than just taking it whenever you want. This is your responsibility to the company and the cultivation of your own quality. Therefore, think of a reason that everyone can understand, such as physical discomfort, major changes in the family, etc.

02 Clarify the vacation time

Since you are going to take a vacation, you should also know the specific number of vacation days in your mind, tell your direct boss so that he can prepare. Generally, interns are required to work for at least three days a week during their internship. If you have been working five days a week before, then try to limit the number of vacation days to 1-2 days. This is for people who are temporarily busy. But if the matter is serious, then you need to re-evaluate how many days of leave you need to take. After proposing your own number of vacation days, you should also listen to the actual situation of your immediate leadership and come up with a better plan.

03 Prepare the replacement plan in advance

If you are asking for leave for a short period of time, you naturally do not need a replacement plan. But if it is long-term, then if the intern qualification is not cancelled, a replacement plan needs to be prepared in advance. Including who will share their work. Or whether you can have the authority to handle transactions remotely. The interns have to think about these things themselves first, and then go to their leaders to apply. In this way, the impression of the leader will become better because of your thoughtfulness. At this time, as a professional, you don’t need to think about it in advance. Don’t wait until someone reminds you later.

Be prepared to clarify the reasons, clarify the time for vacation, and prepare a replacement plan. You might as well try these three methods and see how they work.
