No pay school year intern in hedge fund

Just wondering under current market condition, what is the best way to find a no pay school year intern in a NY based hedge fund? I'm a first year MBA student with engineering background in NY. Could anyone drop a few lines on it?

use your school's career resources and network. i got a list of local firm contacts, sent out 15 emails, got 2 in return, and ended up getting a part-time job. good luck.

 

Many thanks for your practical approach. I'll definitely try it. Do you think it is too late for second semester internship if I send out email by December?
