If you're a college student hoping to improve your resume and actually make some real money as an intern this summer, it definitely helps if you can code: Silicon Valley tech companies dominated Glassdoor's new list of best-paying internships for the year, published Tuesday.

With the exception of Exxon Mobile and Bloomberg L.P., all of the ten highest-paying internships are involved in the technology sector in some way.

These interns are often being paid wages that put them among the highest-compensated workers in the country — interns or not. 

At Facebook, for example, which has the highest-paid interns according to the report, interns earn a median monthly salary of $8,000. That works out to an annual salary of roughly $96,000, almost double the median salary of $51,336 for US workers of any age. 

In order to make Glassdoor's list, each company needed to receive at least 25 reported intern salaries in between April 2016 and April 2017, and only US-based internships were considered. Curious as to how your dream employer stacks up?
