How can I get Vacation work opportunities for an Electrical Engineering Student in Johannesburg?

I’m a third-year Electrical Engineering student at the University of the Witwatersrand, and as part of my graduation requirements I need to complete 29 days of vacation work. I’ve already applied to the advertised opportunities and company websites I could find, but I’m struggling to secure a placement. I’m also on LinkedIn, but I’m unsure about the best way to approach people there — who to contact, how to ask professionally, and whether networking directly is appropriate. If anyone has advice, recommendations, or knows of companies still accepting vacation work students, I would really appreciate the help.

What was your engineering internship experience like?

I'm a senior in high school who is going to be studying aerospace and mechanical engineering after this summer. I definitely plan to do some internships and get real experience when I can, like over the summer while I'm in college. My question for those engineers who did internships is what was that entire experience like? Where did you work, what was the schedule like, what kind of real experience did you get, etc. And, if you could do anything better when it comes to getting real experience, would you do anything differently?

What kinds of majors/minors would be best for my passion for teaching psychology and yoga?

Hi ! I'm a junior in highschool and I want to incorporate my interests into what I will end up doing for a career. I want to be able to teach wellness classes that use psychological sciences, along with yoga, breath work, art, and other tools, to help students in school release energy and learn about their emotions in a more structured setting. I'm not sure if this is something that exists in elementary schools or anywhere else, but I'd like to know if anyone out there is a teacher of this sort of class. What classes or internships should I start looking for in colleges to help me decide on what one I want to commit to? Thank you!

If you are interested in majoring in political science or computer science in hopes of becoming a lawyer or knowledge scientist, which extracurriculars or internships should you look for to provide you with the best experience for post-graduation?

I am interested in both computer science and law, having not yet exactly decided a specific major. Once I do decide, I want to be able to get as much experience as possible and knowledge about the career path. I hope to acquire an internship or mentor that can provide helpful insight and/or experience in these careers that I can utilize after graduation.

Hey how to I get a job after college as an engineer?

I'm a student at the university of Iowa. I don't have a resume I'm a freshman. And getting a job after college sounds impossible. I don't know if I will have to apply to everywhere when I graduate or if I will be able to get summer internships.
