Irpolo,
Would try the larger chains/supermarkets...Walgreens,RiteAid, CVS, Vons, Safeway as they are more likely to "sponsor" you. Hospitals would be a longshot to sponsor for an internship as it is an expensive process that they would probably only consider if you were ready for hire. I'm assuming you're talking about sponsorship for a H1b visa to work here??? You may also try Kaiser Permanente (where I work). It is a large HMO with many pharmacies and California has approximately 5 million members. California has traditionally been good at sponsorship as they have many foreign graduates working out there. Go to
Welcome to Kaiser Permanente to look for openings or try
PharmacyWeek.com: The Pharmacy Professionals' Employment Resource which is a nationwide ad newsletter sent out monthly. I just saw an ad in there for Kaiser Permanente nationwide.
