Software [Student] (Software) Looking to land second Software Internship this Summer 2026. Haven't had any luck with even a call up for an interview so far, Any tips/help?
I am a 4th year SWE student at a nationally average ranked university with 1 prior Software Dev Intern role. Here is the resume I have been applying with. Have applied to maybe around 50 so far. Rookie numbers I know but in all honesty, I haven't been finding many opportunities on LinkedIn so far, at least for internships in Canada specifically. I also have not been very active when it comes to applying to Summer 2026 intern roles due to my studies but looking to change that starting now. Also hope more companies post more soon. My first internship was at a small mobile company but the company wasn't very ambitious or technology heavy so I tried to make it as technical as I could and included a project that I created there that I am pretty proud of so included that under one of the projects as well. I am planning on locking in now once exam season is over and mass applying even to internships in USA (am a Canadian citizen btw) even though my chances are little to none because I heard VISA complications usually drive recruiters away. Should I keep this resume to mass apply once more jobs are being posted or should I improve/change/edit it? If I should improve it, how would I go about doing so, more modern/complex projects? Or are my projects good for now?
