How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Attach your full academic record; HR internships often filter on marks in labour law and HR modules.
If you are a graduate, put your qualification, graduation year and any HR modules at the top of your CV.
