Summer internship opportunities for freshman/sophomore college students?
1 points by Bramble 4885 days ago
In recent threads about software internships, a handful of people posted rates for freshman interns.

However, as a freshman who is admittedly pretty inexperienced, I've not noticed a lot of opportunities for people at my level of education.

I'd really love to use this summer gaining experiential learning in web/software development instead of waiting tables (my usual job). I'm not expecting a great salary, just a great learning experience.

Anyone know of companies that are hiring interns who might need more training than average to be useful? I know google and microsoft both have freshman-oriented summer programs, but I'd like to explore other options, if they are out there.
