WhenHinkleisnot working on deals, the Philadelphia native runs Insight Venture Partner's intern program. So, he knows what separates the good interns from the great interns.We recently spoke with Hinkleto get his advice for new interns looking to get hired by their respective firms. He advises his interns to consider the three following points.Think of ways you can help.Don't limit your responsibilities to those on your job description. If you see a colleague who constantly has to do something that's a hassle, and you could easily do it, then do it.Ask questions.Sometimes this requires a little courage, because nobody wants to ask a stupid question. But it's critical.
