I know everyone is struggling to get an internship this summer, but I just wanted to vent. I know the majority of us are in the same boat.
At this point, I’ve lost count to how many internships I’ve applied to for this summer. I’ve had a few interviews, e-mailed back several companies for follow-ups, and have not heard a thing. I’m starting to get worried, because this is the time when we hear back whether or not he/she gets an offer or not. This is just frustrating - I’ve applied to magazine internships, web design internships, and more tech. related internships (as i’m also a comp. sci major). Geesh.. you’d think these people would get back sooner to everyone!
Rant over :p
i agree with the above
i agree with the above comment, the internet is with a doubt growing into the most important medium of communication across the globe and its due to sites like this that ideas are spreading so quickly.

Just keep plugging along - internships are still being posted here every day! And you never know what already hired intern might flake - and you could be next in line. If you don’t get an internship, there’s always the next round - fall, spring and next summer - and you could use your free time this summer to work on freelance pitches!
Well if your looking
I don’t know, but when I got discouraged I went for magazines people wouldn’t think of and last summer I did my internship with Country Weekly. It’s only 4 weeks and is in Nashville, but it helps and you can always try them as well. Let me know if you need the email to anyone there.

Keep on truckin'
Don’t give up yet! Last year at this time I was very discouraged too, but then I got an internship in the beginning of May.
This summer
I haven’t had any offers, either, despite what I think to be a pretty good resume and lots of experience under my belt. I feel you. I haven’t heard back from any internships at all, though. I applied for the two big ones (ASME, Time, Inc.) and made it to the second round or got waitlisted for each. I’m starting to figure I won’t be interning.
Don't give up!
Just because you haven’t been accepted into the bigger programs doesn’t mean you won’t be able to score an internship. Try contacting all the magazines you’re interested in directly. And as someone else mentioned above, don’t knock the smaller mags. As everyone says, you really will often get more hands-on experience there. And it won’t be looked down on later when you try to get a job—my first internship was at a regional magazine, and that experience got me an internship with a major men’s magazine where I was subsequently hired. You still have time, so keep trying…
And I meant to add, at the
And I meant to add, at the magazine where I work we just recently started looking for summer interns. So all the internships definitely are not filled yet. I know it’s nerve-racking because it’s getting close, but there’s plenty of opportunities still out there.
