He could easily get an internship at Facebook (non-YC) or maybe Airbnb (YC). He definitely has enough skills to get a good internship.

It's hard to get the attention of the recruiters at those companies in my experience.

I would say he has enough skills to get an interview at those companies. Solving coding interview questions is a skill that has very loose correlation with any side project/real work experience IMO.
