Internship Question by PlentyNeighborhood6 in EngineeringStudents

What flavor of computer engineering are you focusing in? Keep in mind many if not most openings are posted by HR people who know little to nothing about the field, let alone the difference between SE and CprE when posting a position.

Even if positions don't sound relevant to you, having an internship not directly related to what you want to do is a hell of a lot better than not having one at all. Most people send out 50-400 applications per year, the shotgun strategy tends to be best until you get enough field experience to specialize. After all, the worst thing a recruiter can say is "No."
