No, you'll get auto-rejected for the wrong grad date and HR/teams will never even see your resume. They are not looking for someone to intern for two summers or just intern and not come back full time - you need to wait your turn. Look for small companies that are more flexible for earlier internships
Are there any that aren’t extremely small boutiques that recruit for sophomore summer? I know T Rowe had one but nothing else to my knowledge
