Fortunately, an internship provides that platform to learn and "make-mistakes." i.e. be corrected before you even make them. For me, typically, it gives you leverage to build that network base and the opportunity to move across the departments of the company.

A great network would always have been beneficial because it helps you to grow without that you can't be successful in this corporate world

A recent graduate in my opinion shouldn't look or take salary too seriously - provided that the offer is decent enough to meet the ends and doesn't seem to be a case of exploitation. A recent graduate should concentrate on looking for his passion and upskilling. Once you have your unique selling proposition, you can command for a good salary later.

Know the market rate, but also introspect honestly. Do you really have a special skill or differentiating factor that justifies your desire for a salary premium? If yes, then highlight that, else be prepared to graciously accept your employer's offer.

In addition to the points listed: 1. Understand Company Strategic Objectives - companies are created to meet identified needs and reduce observed market frictions and through the same process make profit. A recent graduate would have better leverage if his/her impact is aligned with company’s vision. 2. Open mindset - do not restrict yourself to the technical aspect of the business per se. At the very beginning of your career, ensure to understand the impact of your contribution in terms of commercial, regulatory, environmental, stakeholders etc. 3. Visibility: seek for mentorship, and provide value so as to transform them to ‘sponsors’. You can leverage their referral strategically. These are necessary snippets that aid negotiations.
