I applied to 158 data science internships. Here’s what I’d do if I had to do it all over again.

Hey, it’s Edrea! Here’s my advice on the data science internship recruitment process. Hope it helps :)

Also, just want to clarify that I am a college undergrad so my experience/advice might not necessarily reflect that of someone applying to masters/phD-exclusive data science internships. Fyi, many of the internships I applied to were taking undergrads AND masters/phD. Btw the ds interview structure looks pretty different from company to company, so keep in mind that these are just lessons based on my personal recruiting process and might not be 100% accurate for every company.
