Reply to comment by 2-S0CKS in [OC] My sophomore year internship search by UglyDODO

Seriously. I did 3 applications, 3 interviews, one second round interview, and got accepted by that one.

Of the other two, one ghosted me, and the other rejected me but told me it was because a hiring freeze was rolled out the week after my interview, lol.

I cannot imagine doing 50+ applications and 14 interviews. Ain't nobody got the time or energy for that.

I'm at least 50+ applications in, and I've only gotten 4 interviews. Two of which rejected me, and one ghosted me. Still waiting for a callback on the 4th. The job market is insane.

Are you going to a career fair event sponsored by your university, or just blasting out applications on Indeed?

I unfortunately can't afford university. I've been going around in person and sending out resumes on glassdoor and indeed.

So are you just talking about the job market in general, or are you continuing the topic of this post, which was engineering internships? 🤔

50 applications is like the bare minimum students do nowadays ngl
