<p>I'm a 16 year old sophomore in high school with a serious lack of extracurricular activities.</p>
<p>I'm planning on going into the finance field when I go to college, and I'd like to start getting some experience in that area. I live around a medium sized city with a prominent financial district downtown. I'd really like to get an unpaid (paid is better, but I don't care) at some sort of investment firm downtown.</p>
<p>Do firms ever give 16-year-olds internships? If they do offer internships, how would I go about applying for one, would I email the company, or fill out an actual application?</p>
<p>Have any of you guys done something similar?</p>
