Have been lurking here for the past few weeks and I wanted to create an account and say Hello finally.

I moved to the US 3 years ago. I have a BS in Mechanical engineering from overseas, and I've worked over 10 years in power plants. Since I moved to the US, I studied and passed the EIT and recently passed my PE test (Mechanical - HVAC). I live in southern California – Santa Ana area and looking for an internship (paid or unpaid) to develop myself and gain experience in the US. I’m looking for your help (guidance and direction) if you can help me to get myself back in the field that I enjoy.

I'd say, don't worry about the internship and just be looking for a job.
I'm assuming you're set up where you can legally work here- if not, that's a different issue.
 
I think the biggest issue for employers is what work you did in the US. You've been here 3 yrs; presumably, you worked under a PE that signed off on your application?

I just passed the PE exam. I am not licensed yet. I did not work under any PE. for that I am looking for any job even as a volunteer.
