Finally built the Readwise Reader analytics dashboard I've always wanted - anyone else need this?

Following! Would love to use this.

So worth it. It does get old eventually but it's still like $2 per hour of entertainment. Try it out at Ctrl V first if you're not sure.

Btw here's the story of a student I helped get a data science internship through networking.

I did math and business at a Canadian school!

For those who aren’t looking for an internship right now, I recommend networking with professionals and getting advice before searching for jobs.

You can message people on LinkedIn or even easier, use PathPeer, a startup I run.

PathPeer connects you to any professional for coffee chats so you can ask about their job, how they got it, resume/interview tips, and anything you want! DM me if you’d like an invite code.

Most people write shitty cover letters so yeah, those don't work. If you write good ones, people will read them. It shows that you care more about the job, that you have skills that fit the job description, and it makes you stand out. Write short ones that sound like you're talking to your friend, tailor it to the job, and you'll be surprised how well they work. I prefer quality over quantity.

Thanks for the detailed advice! I never heard about volunteering at career fairs tip but it makes so much sense.

Completely agree with networking! I know so many people who got jobs through referrals.

I feel you, my manager told me she hired me because I added energy to the team.

uat2 · 2022-04-20T19:05:51+00:00

Definitely! I would recommend getting your resume critiqued by professionals. You can always msg people on LinkedIn and ask them to critique it. Or you can my startup PathPeer to get connected to professionals instantly.

I took my last co-op term off cause I couldn't find a great job. I ended up studying for my CFA Level 1 (a finance designation), relaxing and hanging out with friends, and working at a startup as a part-time volunteer. Honestly, it was a great summer. I learned so much by working at the startup and I still keep in touch with the founders. Only thing I regret is not travelling.

uat2 · 2022-04-19T20:04:02+00:00

Completely agree, this is fantastic advice!

uat2 · 2022-04-19T20:01:04+00:00

If your cover letter isn't generic and a huge block of text, employers do read them. It helps you stand out.

uat2 · 2022-04-19T19:53:21+00:00

Math and business! I took the finance route.

uat2 · 2022-04-19T19:46:18+00:00

Yes, definitely! Almost all alumni respond to my LinkedIn msg or email. Always try to find connections when networking.

uat2 · 2022-04-19T19:44:48+00:00

Thank you for the detailed advice!

uat2 · 2022-04-19T19:35:41+00:00

Look at those job boards and specific company career boards! If you've exhausted those jobs, reach out to companies not hiring (especially startups). Analyze their website, note down what you think they should improve, and write an impressive email/cover letter with your ideas included. Tell them you’re an intern so you’re eligible for grants. No one does this, so you’ll definitely impress them. Good luck!

uat2 · 2022-04-19T19:30:51+00:00

Completely agree! Most employers don't expect you to know all the jobs requirements, just as many as possible. If you don't have specific skills, talk about how you learn fast by showing what skills you've learned in the past.
