Default Good place for internship?

Looks like I'll be graduating sooner than I expected with my marketing degree. Anybody know where I can get a good internship in my field? It'd be good if it was in the south bay. Just thought I'd ask my fellow z drivers before I go job hunting.

seems like all recruitment dates have passed. Are there still internships for the summer available? I'll send you a pm as it sounds like you work for chevron. Thanks.

yes, i've been working at their finance department for like 3 years now and i know they are still hiring for both business (finance and marketing) and engineering majors to fill up the age gap. so now it's your chance to be part of Chevron and earn that 15%+ yearly bonus+8% company match on 401K!! i'd suggest all qualified candidates to at least give it a shot.
