I stumbled upon a github post called coding interview university and with the shiny object syndrome I have, I kinda want to ditch the roadmaps and start something new like this one in github, or the random dude I found in YouTube, telling his audience that he passed the FAANG interviews. The annoying part of me is that whenever I hear stuff like “I passed the FAANG”, I will immediately try to follow their path because their method works for them or to some other people

Study leetcode and ds + algo outside of class as much as you can. I applied to 150, got like 25 OA/interview and got an internship as a sophomore it just takes a ton of work. I’d check out this link https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships Sorry I’m on mobile. They haven’t made one for 2023 yet, but when they do I would check up on it; it’s fairly easy to apply down that list.

It’s not really efficient, but it’s easier with a compiled list of options. I used https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships as a guide for 2022.

The link is for the list back in April 2021, so it is definitely expected that the list is small. The current one has 100+ if you're wondering https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships/tree/master

On GitHub you can find crowdsourced job applications like those found here https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships and here https://github.com/pittcsc/NewGrad-2021. These may be outdated, but you can do your own research to find repos that are up-to-date.

I used https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships to find my internship this summer. I assume another one of these will be made for 2023

I didn’t get my first offer until my junior year, but one thing that really helped me was to apply to a bunch of companies. I was over hundred companies deep when I got my first offer. This website by UPitt really helped me with my internship search last summer : https://github.com/pittcsc/Summer2022-Internships. Expect them to open up late July/early June. Besides this, I would brush up on behavioral interviews and Leetcode for software roles.

Internship, without a doubt. I'm in quant, and this list has been super helpful. My friends in biz/finance have said good things about this one as well. Apply to as many as you can!

First internship was frosh year, got in late May – found it on this github repo lol

Head up king(or queen)! I got my summer internship offer on May 22 – there is still time!! I'd recommend cleaning up your resume and applying to as many places as you can. Here's a list of tech internships and general internships. I'd recommend getting an application autofilling extension to save you some of the stress & tears! You got this!!!
