Is it too late in the summer to call boutiques in my area and ask about unpaid internships? I guess it can't hurt. Did I just answer my own question?





Too late to intern. Not too
Too late to intern. Not too late to shadow. Not too late to intern if you feel like taking off the fall semester.
Just saying...

You kind of answered your own question: if you don't ask, you definitely won't get an internship. There's always going to be some place looking for free slaves. Once you move away from BB's it becomes very subjective, so start calling MMs and boutiques.
Just out of curiosity, why are you starting the search now?

If you're a freshman, I'd just enjoy the last summer you'll ever see the light of day. Otherwise, just start calling them up. Good luck, and happy hunting

There are still firms out there who will take unpaid interns.

^ yep, I got my first in b/c the intern simply didn't show up. Also keep in mind that the smaller places are a lot more likely to let you work part time throughout the year. Everyone loves the word 'free'.
