I initially knew a few engineering interns who provided me with an HR contact. I emailed them my resume, but they were not looking for people with an International Business background at that time. They emailed me a year later and called me for a phone interview that had your basic, why should we hire you? what do you know about the company? when would you be available to work? Go over your resume for me etc. They called me up a few hours later and told me I got the job! Since it was an internship position: just research the company, be confident in your answers and prepare This is very unusual as the company usually presses any applicants to apply online first and then go through HR.
