Paid internships (apprenticeships) only. Never take on an unpaid internship unless the organisation you approach is completely run by volunteers. You will only gain valuable experience if the organisation values you, whilst some of that experience is learning technology from experts, it also needs to include other skills such as salary and contract negotiation. You will perform at your best if you are not worrying about bills.
