Finding an internship

My recent life has been very difficult. The main thing is to find an internship, but the process is not smooth. I have submitted more than a dozen resumes and only participated in two interviews, and it should have been rejected! There are many reasons why I cannot find my internship, such as the economic downturn and poor timing. The main reason is to analyze my own reasons. This evening I came back with Lele for dinner and had a deep discussion on this issue. The main reason is the type of practice. Currently, I am mainly applying for Java Development, which is my preferred field, but how competitive is it? Obviously, this job can also be done by undergraduate students and is not inferior to me. More importantly, the undergraduate interns are expected to sign a formal contract, and the company will leave an internship without white training. So I am not competitive.

Let's take a look at our fellow students who are looking for an internship or related to their own lab orientation or their own graduation design fields,Algorithm, Data analysis, data mining, natural language processing, and so on. Most of these fields are not accessible to undergraduates. Therefore, the competition is much smaller and the development capability and technical requirements are not very high. For example, to master Linux, scripting languages such as Python are not necessary. On the other hand, I am unable to get involved in these fields. Although I have also learned relevant knowledge by myself, I have never been more experienced than other students who have done relevant research in the lab.

So now I am in a very embarrassing situation. I am not superior in terms of development capabilities, and I have not mastered any "supply is less than seeking" technology. The reason is mainly due to the perspective of the undergraduate course. I studied software College in my undergraduate course. In my understanding at the time, the so-called technical master isCodeWell written, able to develop projects, Master many technologies, Java, C, Linux, and have good coding habits. So in the past four years, this is my goal and I have achieved some success. If I graduate from an undergraduate course, I should be very advantageous. But now I have been a graduate student, and it is totally different. For now, the "ability" that I previously longed for is not so important. Instead, I have replaced my domain knowledge and accumulation, this is the so-called Technology in the Postgraduate stage. In this case, the previous mentor asked me to read the paper, and I was very disgusted. This is also a misunderstanding.

The topic involves the question of why graduate students should study and what graduate students should do. When I started school, I simply hoped that I could find a high-paying job after graduation. I hoped that I could earn more than yuan a year, which is still relatively high, so I was looking for a way to get such a job, so I found Data Mining and started learning. This aims to find the path. At present, I can better understand this problem. If my graduate students spend three years of development, as I expected, that is, low-level and repetitive development, then, A waste of three years. After graduation, I will not find a job better than I did after my graduation, or I cannot find a job, who will hire a person with a higher salary than an undergraduate student. Then, you need to find the technologies that provide less than the demand to develop your own product to increase your value. Simply put, I need to accumulate in a certain field in my three years as a graduate student. Even after a while, I successfully got an internship and went to the Java bricklayer. I had to look for a field like this at my position, let me study and accumulate for more than a year. This should be the purpose of my internship, rather than simply an internship. Here, the reasons for postgraduate students are self-evident.

Finally, let's talk about the benefits of the Multi-Read industry dynamics. Undergraduate students know that they want to learn more about the industry trends, but they do not know why. Naturally, they do not do what they do. They occasionally go to cnbeta, that is, they just smile and don't care about it. Now they suffer losses, to understand the importance of industry dynamics. Now we know that big data is very popular and has been on fire for a long time. with relevant experience, you can easily find a job. You can find it from the old man who was looking for a job last year. However, during my undergraduate course, I did not know why. That is why I did not understand the industry trends. Even if I understood it, I did not come to the idea. Looking for a job, there is also a market, there is a balance between supply and demand, such as simple Java Development, C ++ development, web development, nature is oversupply, enterprises can choose a lot, many training institutions provide such people, and there are not many requirements for them. As a student, I can have enough time to learn and charge, so I can find such a technology that is in short supply by understanding the industry dynamics, in-depth research. As a practitioner in the industry, more importantly, related applications and implementations, after all, need to be developed, so the code capability should not be underestimated. This is the case for students. If they want to know what kind of talent is in short supply after work, they need to work in that direction.
