1/ For reasons explained in other comments, I would search for a full-time job rather than an internship. To find small companies, check out the most prominent VCs present in the UK and check out what startups they have invested in (it's almost always publicly listed on their websites).
2/ No. Get a full-time job. While you're job hunting, work on a personal project that will further your skills and expertise. You will almost certainly be quizzed on that (at least, if you try to join successful startups)
3/ See above. In case you're interested: we're based in London, UK, and are currently hiring for 3 positions: https://pusher.com/jobs https://pusher.com/jobs
Good luck!
- akaij 12y agoSeeking a full-time job seems to be the best course of action. About your company: it does seem interesting but again, I don't seem to fit any of the descriptions because of lack of experience.
- WednesdayBass 12y agoThe best advice my dad ever gave me when looking for jobs is that even if you only match the description 50%, apply for it. Don't be put off by the list of skills/qualities they want. Show that, while you don't meet all of the criteria on the job advert, you're keen and have a good head on your shoulders. I'm in the UK as well and I know it's a tough market. But I agree with what others have posted - take anything even vaguely related to IT. The only jobs I had before I got a placement/internship were working in a shop and doing data entry.
