Signing up to this website will require that you have a functional email address. The word “functional” is important as many just have an email address but don’t regularly check or use them.

Another source of information on intern jobs is the printed media. So, while the internet seems indispensable, you should not neglect newspapers and other periodicals that may contain such sought-for-information.
