It might be too late to get an internship at a large company, but there are probably startups and other small companies that would love to have interns.
It doesn't hurt to find companies you're interested in an shoot them an e-mail inquiring about a summer position.
This worked for me when I e-mailed a couple of startups, one of which was Justin.tv. Even though they weren't specifically targeting interns, I e-mailed them anyway, with a solution to their pre-interview programming problem.
Now I'm in San Francisco =).
- goofygrin 18y agoThis is what I was going to recommend, so +1 I got my first "programming" job as an intern at Cessna (in 1996). The job sucked (Fortran on a mainframe), but it was awesome resume fodder for the next few years. Plus I can say that I worked in Fortran ;)
