Hey Carmen!
Fantastic looking ahead for your senior year. A lot of companies offer internships that would give you some great hands on experience. If you are looking to go into the medical field have you thought about getting your CNA? Getting your CNA would allow you to get first hand experience in the medical field that would certainly help you move forward. For the a career in tech you could look into the bigger tech companies out there; Verizon, AT&T, GOOGLE, Apple, Amazon, etc. All of those companies do internship that would be amazing experience and great for your future resume.

Probably too early for college internships. The best thing for a rising college student would be to connect with professionals that you, your parents, and your friends parents may know and see if they have any openings. You can also check with your high school - a lot of them have student internship companies and some of those companies may be looking for summer help.
Thanks for the great advice, Alecia!

I think it may be too early to start thinking about internships that far ahead for a number for reasons. One reason is that lot of such internships don't become available till close to date of their need since providers of these internships need to budget for it, if they are paying, or approve unpaid ones for when they need them. So it's like shooting in the dark when some of the internships don't even exist right now but like flowers in spring will bloom when it's close that time (summer 2023). Which means you may be able to find internships for summer 22 because that is what will be currently in need.
The other reason is that there are many college level students gunning for those internships and may have a better chance given that they would have more relevant knowledge having taken those college classes.
With that said, there are still lot of internships out there specific to high school students that you can get started on right now. And come end of summer 2022, you can start your hunt for summer 2023 opportunities. For now check these out:
