Too late to find an internship?

[Chu]

After the semester from hell, I find myself with no plan for the summer. Anyone know if there are ANY companies out there still looking for (good) CS interns, even if they are not offering salary?

agreed. it's never too late. it will probably be difficult at the big companies, going through the usual channels, but people are hiring all the time.

depending on what your field is, one possibility is to contact a professor whose reseach is interesting to you at whichever university you want and ask about openings in their lab, etc.

i got hooked up at one guy's startup company by doing that.
