    1. Tracked my applications on excel, then whenever I received an email for an update/rejection i’d update it

    2. SWE or do non SWE positions also have online assessments? What are those online assessments?

    3. I’ve seen a lot of internships have a minimum GPA requirement of 3.5. That might be killing you there.

    4. I used to think assignments and multiple interviews for internships were ridiculous, but after having to supervise actual interns I can see why. Honestly I would prefer internships to disappear as it much easier and fair with an actually newly grad hired.

    5. Question that I’ve been thinking and reading about quite a bit. For these applications, are you sending in customized resumes and/or cover letters? How many are mashing the easy apply button on LinkedIn for pure volume?

    6. Any reason why the direct offer after interview was selected, rather than going through with the 2nd round of interviews at other places?

    7. I graduated a few years ago but I wish I’d tracked my internship applications.

      I applied for less than 30, 20 or so ignored, 5 rejections, 5 interviews, 2 second rounds, 1 third round. Rejected from 2, offer accepted 1 (the third round), offer rejected 2

    8. yep. this was literally me 3 years ago but on another field. Basically it was me holding a board saying “free worker for 3 months” (in the country I was applying, internships are u paid) and literally nobody accepted me. Fck them.
