Hi Gamal. To improve your chances of landing a paid internship, start your search early and look into companies that catch your interest. You can find opportunities on job boards, university career centers, and websites like LinkedIn. Don't limit yourself to local companies; many international companies offer remote internships that give you the chance to learn global best practices. The more options you explore, the better your chances of finding the right fit.

You should also make sure your resume and cover letter are tailored to each internship you apply for. Highlight any relevant courses, skills, or experiences that match the job description. Even if you haven't had formal work experience, focus on what you've learned from volunteering, school projects, or extracurricular activities. Your cover letter should show your enthusiasm for the position and explain why you're a good fit for the company.

Many universities have resources to help students find internships, such as internship databases, career coaching, and workshops. Take advantage of these resources, as they can give you the tools you need to improve your resume, practice for interviews, and find opportunities that you might not come across on your own.

All the best.
