Hi guys! With summer coming up, I'm looking for online summer internships that I can do while staying home. Are there any you'd recommend? How do I find them and apply?
Hey! It's awesome that you're thinking about summer internships. Online internships are becoming more common, so there's a good chance you'll find something that fits your interests.
For finding online internships, you can start by checking out websites like Indeed, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor. These sites usually have filters that allow you to search specifically for remote or online internships. Another option is to visit company websites directly, especially if you already know which companies you're interested in. Sometimes they'll have internship listings that aren't posted on the larger job boards.
You should also consider signing up for email newsletters that focus on internship opportunities, like the one offered by CollegeVine. They'll often highlight upcoming internships and application deadlines.
Once you find an internship you're interested in, be sure to tailor your application materials (resume, cover letter, etc.) to the specific opportunity. Make sure you showcase your strengths and how they relate to the internship role. Just like a regular internship, you'll need to submit your application by following the directions on the job posting, and you may be invited for a virtual interview.
Happy searching, and good luck!
