Frances’s Answer

Go to your college Career counseling department or the department of your major. These offices should be able to give you a list of companies looking for interns in your area of major. The best time to look for a summer internship is Oct/Nov time frame six months before your graduation date.

Julia’s Answer

There are several great resources for finding summer internships. LinkedIn is a great start. You can go to the jobs tab and put "internship" in the search box. Another popular place is Glassdoor. Not only can you find opportunities, but it will also give salaries, company reviews, and descriptions of job interviews. Also, don't forget about your school resources.

I recommend visiting your college's career center and speaking with a resource rep there. Another great way to get connected with employers are by attending career fairs or creating a career profile via platforms such as Handshake, WayUp, Indeed, and LinkedIn.

You should apply for Fortune 500 companies within your industry/desired career and apply to those companies. Those will give you a great brand name on your resume and good experience!

Keely’s Answer

I also recommend seeing if your school hosts a career fair. Prior to the career fair, I would research what companies will be in attendance and determine which ones interest you. Then you can maximize your time at the career fair by asking those companies about their internship opportunities, what qualities they look for in an intern, and any next steps. Also, sometimes companies come to schools for various networking events. At these events you can introduce yourself and ask what internship opportunities are available.
