How to get Internships in High School & College | Cold Mailing Tricks

Hey guys!! In this video, I will be walking you through my personal guide for applying to and reaching out to companies for internships. We will cover everything on how to get internships in high school :)
The video has three core segments. First, I talk about why you should have an internship in high school and how it can help you gain academic depth, academic exploration, as well as the opportunity for building relationships and personal mentorship. Lastly, it also shows Initiative on your part.
After that, we delve into how you can apply for internships in high school and college, whether it's LinkedIn or using platforms like Angellist and Internshala, or even leveraging your personal network and connections
In the last segment of the video, I jump into cold mailing and cold mails, what makes an effective cold mail, and how you can increase your chances of a response by using a few tips - Touchbasing, throwing a rope, the lock and key effect, the numbers game, and keeping your request concise & crisp.

This is such a great initiative , thank you guys :))

Shaurya alone will be responsible for so many future success stories! Thanks so much for this and everything you've been doing

Thanks a lot Shaurya!

This is great, I was already thinking you could put in a Google form if the spreadsheet wasn't working out

Relax, you have your whole life ahead of you that’s a super long time to do whatever you feel like doing

[@sunooki3901]

Calm down and stop evaluating yourself with other. Evaluate yourself with your past self and you will be able to see the change and also appreciate it and it also allows you to figure out your mistakes and improve. Remember and accept that everybody grows and moves at a different pace so comparing yourself with others will destroy your self confidence. All the best, take care of yourself and I'm always rooting for your success in life💕

[@manjureya3019]

Calm down this person is actually is rich and has many connections otherwise no student has time to actually do all these because for 9th and board or at least till 12th the syllabus is vast and we have to devote our complete time for studies

Shaurya, that is a solid video on cold mailing techniques. But let me plug Mystrika here. As a cold email tool, it is a titan! Trust me, I have seen my outbound leads sucker punch the clouds ever since I started using it. The new interface is slick and solid.

Hi Shaurya ...I just wanna give a constructive feedback. The videos you make have a lot of research work and depth in them and we really get that within like a min...But all I wanna say is try & be more easy and friendly when you talk with the camera(like you do with friends) because often times it get a little overwhelmingly mundane and colourless to get through the entire video..
