Hi Ayomide,
Some schools business programs have a program in place to help students get internships. For example, my school had a specific program for accounting students to help them get internships with accounting firms or companies who are looking for accounting interns. Look into your school's programs to see if they have something similar! Good Luck!

Hi Ayomide,
Such a great question. My best advice for getting an internship would be to take advantage of all the recruiting and networking events hosted on campus. Be sure to reach out to your career office on campus and find out what events are being held. For example, my campus had 2 large career fairs each year and tons of smaller firm specific networking events. If these are available make sure to take advantage of as many events as your schedule permits. From my experience, the smaller events are just as important as the career fairs if they are available.
The most important thing is stay focused on your goals and be proactive in achieving them in whatever way possible. Good Luck!

Hi Ayomide!
Most people get their internships at career fairs held in their universities. Check out your schools career website or help desk. They should be able to give you specifics about your school.
Beyond that, you can look into online platforms liked Indeed.com or looking directly on a company's website for job postings.
Good luck!

Hello!
This is a great question! I would recommend you attending your college's career fairs (usually if you check the career center at your university, they will give you a list of dates for the careers fairs). You can also look at LinkedIn or Indeed.com for internships as well. I hope this helps.
Best regards,
