Pro-tip from Ed Brodka: Instead of just applying to an internship at one of these companies, go to their company LinkedIn page and search for employees on LinkedIn from that company. Send one of them a personalized LinkedIn connection request and try to set up an informational interview with them and ask for advice about getting an internship there. It will make you stand out and give you a chance to demonstrate your professional communication skills and increase your chance of getting an interview.
