Rhode Island
Little Rhody, also known as The Ocean State, is the smallest state by area with its capital as Providence. Known as the Birthplace of the American Industrial Revolution, Rhode Island is home to a massive health service industry, with chain giant CVS' headquarters in Woonsocket. The second largest industry is tourism while the third largest is manufacturing. The 40,000-employee conglomerate, Textron, also has headquarters in Providence.
Rhode Island, though smallest by area, certainly has a number of internship opportunities across a wide and diverse range of industries. InternZoo offers employer listings and also provides internship advice with tips for writing a stellar résumé and using the interview as a time to show off your talents rather than having it an obstacle to your internship.
