Internshala remains one of the most widely used platforms among Indian students. It’s easy to navigate and offers internships in nearly every discipline — from software development and digital marketing to design, HR, and writing. For most college students, Internshala is the go-to site to kickstart their internship journey.
LinkedIn is not just about networking or posting updates — it’s a powerful tool for landing internships. Many companies post internship openings directly on LinkedIn, and your profile doubles as your resume. Keeping your profile updated increases your chances of getting noticed by recruiters, even when you’re not actively applying.
Opportunity Near Me, powered by ITE YONIK SERVICES®, is quickly gaining popularity among students looking for both training and internship opportunities. One student I know completed a web development course through this platform and later secured an internship via the same site. It’s a unique blend of learning and applying — making it much more than a regular course or internship.
Glassdoor is known for its company reviews, but it’s also a great place to find internships. The benefit is you can read reviews from current and former employees before applying. One of my seniors checked reviews before joining a marketing internship and realized the environment wasn’t right for her — saving both time and effort.
While Naukri is famous as a job search portal, it also lists plenty of internship openings. Many organizations that hire full-time through Naukri also look for short-term interns. Applying through Naukri can sometimes lead to full-time job opportunities later on, especially if you perform well during your internship.
Final Thoughts
Each of these platforms brings something unique: Internshala for ease of use, LinkedIn for visibility, Opportunity Near Me for learning with real projects, Glassdoor for company insights, and Naukri for reach. Don’t wait — apply, learn, and make the most of every internship opportunity.
