I would suggest you to prepare yourself for internships by solving a lot of case studies through "Case in Point" and then start applying for interns at BCG, Goldman, JP Morgan, Deloitte etc. You can find these internships at Linkedin jobs portal. Also, keep your LinkedIn profile tidy. All the best!

Hello Mateusz. You should look online to see what internships are available. You should also speak with your advisor about finding internships.

Hi Mateusz,

I agree with the other suggestions that you prepare yourself for an internship and look for opportunities online, including LinkedIn. Further, along with keeping your LinkedIn profile tidy, I would suggest that you connect with professionals and hiring managers in your field on LinkedIn. To elaborate, apart from applying for internship positions online, you could look for the hiring manager for the position and send out a connection request expressing interest in the position. This will give you more visibility and a potential opportunity to move forward in the hiring process. I suggest that you refer this responses here: https://www.careervillage.org/questions/552590/how-do-we-network-to-professionals-or-hiring-managers to get an idea of how to extend connection requests to hiring manager and professionals in your field.

Hope this helps. Good luck :)
