Internship websites

A short finder for the internship websites worth using. We ingest public lists and official APIs. When a posting publishes a description on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, or USAJobs, we keep a short summary and skill mentions so search can find Java, Python, Chinese, and the like. We do not scrape Handshake, LinkedIn, or Indeed. Apply on the employer page. These other sites are still worth opening on your own. See how to find internships if you want the order of operations.

On this site

GitHub internship lists (Pitt CSC / Simplify, engineering, business), USAJobs college / graduate student Pathways roles, Y Combinator internships, Idealist nonprofit internships, and official company career boards (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday) for employers the lists often miss.

Handshake · school career site

Campus-exclusive postings. Needs your school email. Start here for local and alumni roles.

LinkedIn · Indeed

Huge boards. Use them for alerts, then track the ones you care about in a folder here.

Y Combinator

Curated startup internships from the YC internships page, plus intern rows on Work at a Startup.

USAJobs

Federal Pathways and student trainee internships for current undergrads and grad students. Many require U.S. citizenship — that shows on the row.

Idealist

U.S. nonprofit internships with a working apply link. Due dates show when the posting publishes one.

WayUp · Extern

WayUp for brand-name early career roles. Extern for project-based experience if you need something on your resume first.

TrueUp · CoolWorks

TrueUp for tech startups. CoolWorks for parks, resorts, and seasonal outdoor work.

Company websites

If you already know the employer, go to their careers page. That is still the source of truth.
