How to find informal internship for the fall?

How do I find an informal internship for the fall semester? Preferably I would want something in PE/credit/HF and I know that it would be difficult to get. This summer I will be doing an internship in DCM and I only have one more semester left in school but I decided to stay virtual.

Gotta find a list of firms in your desired area and then start cold emaling. You can visit each firm's website and grab some email formats from there. You can also ask around your friend group and see if they've done internships at smaller firms and see if there are any openings.
