How can a student find a summer job abroad?

Good day!
I am a 1st year student.
I've been programming since I was 11-12, now I'm 18.
English at a fairly high level (5-6 years of studying with a teacher).
From work experience: 1 year of freelancing at Elance.
Please tell me: how can I find a job for the summer abroad, preferably in the IT industry?

Do not listen to kazmiruk , he is off topic.
In the States, there is a J1 visa, which is specifically designed for "exchange of experience" and is not a dual-intent, i.e. it is understood that after a certain period you will leave the United States and you do not even think of staying there (otherwise they may not give you a visa).
ManyAll decent IT companies organize internships for students, bringing them for a couple of months in the summer on this same J1 visa. And yes, they bother not only with visas, but also with housing, flights and other things. And yes, they pay well. Of course, there are much more people who want to intern at Google than they are able to hire (although, I’m sure, more than one hundred students pass through them over the summer) - here you need to show yourself well at the interview, and the company may be ashamed of your junior student status. Nevertheless, it is real, there are success stories on Habré Megamind (?).
This year it is already too late to twitch somewhere, since the process of registration of all this is not fast, usually interviews end somewhere in February-March.
PS Everything is not limited to the states, the same Google, for example, carries interns to Europe, and, say, Japan.

WorkAndTravel and the like. There are no other options, since no employer will bother with visas, etc., since you have no experience (and education) and you intend to dump back by the end of summer.

You can at least find it here. No one will take you abroad now.
Until graduation, you can not even rock the boat.
In my first year, I also studied this issue, so I’m telling you as a source)
In general, get a permanent job (not just for the summer) here as a junior in some decent company if you want to achieve something abroad later.

You can try here.
talentboard.com
As far as I know, the point of this service is to look for a temporary job (internship) in the IT field.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
