Absolutely school related. Congratulations on being so close to the end! Fantastic!!! I too have been thinking a lot about this lately as it has been a long time since I have worked.

School courses are intense and a different atmosphere that many find getting back into work from school almost a relief. You have more skills than you think whether there is formal job experience to go with it or not. I will PM you a style of resume that emphasizes your skills instead of the older tradition 'list your job' format. It has been recommended for anyone who has not worked, coming out of school, minimal jobs, or has been out of the workforce for any length of time. It was initially given to me by a headhunter and even when was doing hiring, I used to see it frequently (even way back when), but since then, I found it is being used by our school and meets with great success. This should help you in your hunt and help relief some concerns about this in the meantime.

Wishing you great success in all your future endeavors and on your internship/placement and final class!
