Don’t do it
Why no do?
My diplomatic advice: I’d say you’ve got nothing to lose but time if you do some research into who’s offering UX internships and reach out.
My realistic advice: Run.
Go intern in a business in middle America. Where they don't receive tax breaks or subsidies. In poverty where the work force is limited and broken.
Learn how to actually use the process and how to connect to real people. I promise your personas will be more solid than anything you'll learn interning for any of those conglomerates.
The biggest disconnect in tech is coming from the sentiment of those that actually know how to make the analytics work.
There's a quantitative bond with qualitative proof. Theory is nothing without the real people proving it. Businesses propped up with subsidies at every turn. Never learns the proving part because they don't actually suffer like a normal ran business. Most things that kill small/medium business helped build the big business.
Subject Expert
As someone who is in too deep and is actually trying to pivot back to my old industry to find work, I wouldn't look to build skills and portfolio to try to break into the industry. Some success I've found for contract work is coming up with a pitch for the company you want to work for and try finding someone in leadership to potentially send to. You might not hear back at all but it's also a way to stand out.
