In 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic started rapidly spreading across the nation, everyone started taking precautionary measures to combat the situation. One such measure was to turn to remote working.
The best place to find such opportunities is online. For instance, on Internshala itself, 60% of employers hired virtual interns in 2020-2021.
The first step would be to register on the platform and build your resume. In your resume, you must highlight the details and achievements relevant to the internships you are applying to.
