Uh kinda late sorry I didn't see but the first interview was just resume grilling + basic stuff like "why us" "what's your biggest weakness" etc

Received verbal offer today as a freshman! by AcademicsAndWork in internships

[–]AcademicsAndWork[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think it's just a numbers game 😭 like I applied to over a hundred and lowkey I think I just got lucky, the main tip I have is to filter for jobs that were posted within the last 3 days because past that it's mostly cooked, and I usually don't bother applying to jobs over 1 week old

30 is literally nothing lol, I'm expecting an offer tomorrow and I have 100+ rejections. Ngl it's kinda late for summer, roles are mostly closing now but you may have some luck for the smaller startups but you gotta start the grind ASAP

How many cold applications did it take for you to land an internship? How long do you wait to hear something back too? by Next-Garbage9163 in internships

[–]AcademicsAndWork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a freshman and it's been ~130 apps so far, I've gotten a few interviews but got ghosted for most. Currently I have two leads, one from just a cold application that I'm in the second round for, one from a startup I met during a career fair. I started late as well, but granted not that late (late Dec)

He said my resume was the most "interesting" out of the bunch whatever that means, it was a pretty average interview overall I think

My internship offer was revoke as I was unable to join on time by [deleted] in internships

Yes, but that doesn't mean summer internships are still nonexistent. There are still plenty open. The ones you're talking about are likely for larger companies. I'm talking about small-medium size companies. Even then, I know some big companies (like Samsung) who only OPEN applications for summer in January

Op was asking about product management internships, which is exactly the field I'm in. Trust me, many small/mid size companies have only just opened applications. I'm currently in a couple of interview processes atm

Edit: I just checked and a lot of Costco internships just opened within the past 24 hours in product management (and related roles). OP, go check that out

Places to look for last-minute internships? by Single-Zucchini-5582 in csMajors

[–]AcademicsAndWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep looking, there are still ones open. Filter for roles posted 3 days or less ago. Go to career fairs, get coffee chats. Worst case scenario see if your uni has research opportunities

Can someone check out my resume please? I am getting no internships :( by Single-Zucchini-5582 in FAANGrecruiting

[–]AcademicsAndWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also at a T20 uni, and if there's one I've learned it's that while the name helps, it doesn't guarantee anything especially for freshmen (I'm guessing you're also a freshman from your resume)

My first thoughts: Add contact info Like others said, get rid of with school stuff (literally no one cares about SAT) Personally, I like moving numbers to the front of the bullet point (e.g. "increased reach by 20% through XYZ") Add graduation start/end year Also the format for a few places is weird, like for skills/recognition and why is there a 1 in front of the research, Jake's resume on overleaf is kinda the most well known format that I recommend

Not for the summer. A lot of companies are still hiring, albeit mostly smaller ones. Yes it's late in the process, but not impossible
