A lot of students don't want to randomly call Chicago web design companies and ask if they are hiring interns. That is understandable, but it can yield results, so it's definitely worth a try. Grab the Chicago yellow pages and start contacting companies. You will be told "no" a lot, but don't get discouraged. When you finally get a "yes" you will realize that it was all worth it.
Many students make the mistake of exclusively contacting web design companies when looking for a web design internship. This severely limits their chances. There are many other kinds of companies that also need web designers. Don't make the mistake of excluding these companies from your search. There are a lot of different businesses that use web designers.
Some of these businesses are: advertising agencies, web hosting companies, graphic design firms, animation companies, and domain name registrars. Keep an open mind and consider some of these alternatives and you may find an internship sooner than you think.
