Reply to comment by AzorAhaiIsJonSnow in [OC] 2021 and 2022 job searches as a Software Engineering Intern in Canada by GeorgeDaGreat123

I know a few ppl in 2nd year working at Tesla & Apple for mechanical/electrical engineering jobs. Crazy! But yeah generally it seems to be considerably more difficult for non-software engineering.

Damn! That’s incredibly impressive as well. I’m in structural/civil engineering and 2nd year internships are for the exceptional candidates w/ connections only pretty much. Don’t think I’ve ever heard of a civil engineering internship for a 1st year.

The company I work for doesn’t even consider candidates below senior and that’s somewhat standard I think.

Ah yeah that would explain it. Civil's tough — it has one of the lowest rates of ppl successfully getting internships, compared to 13 other engineering programs at my university
