How can I find mechanical engineering internships without much experience? I have tried reaching out to alumni and local businesses directly but have not had much luck.

Try joining engineering groups online, attend virtual or local career fairs, and use internship platforms that specialize in your field. Sometimes smaller startups or research labs have openings and less red tape, those can be great stepping stones.

Thanks for the feedback, will give it a shot
