Great video as always, Kazeem. One thing that I would like to add, similar in the vein of getting a referral, is to just network. Networking, whether that be with your classmates, events that you attend (programming contents, Hackathon events, etc.), or whatever else, can be a huge resource that you can use to your advantage when getting your foot in the door for internships. I became friends with people in my classes in school and just so happened to have a conversation with one who offhandedly mentioned that they were looking for one more intern to fill a spot that had recently opened up, and they gave me the recruiters information, which allowed me to take the steps needed to apply, and eventually land the internship. That one conversation has led me into what my career currently is (Software Dev II, currently going on year 4) and had I not went out of my way to network and become friends with others, I might not be where I am now.

GREAT advice as well, I definitely encourage networking just in general too! I talk about this more in that other video I referenced in the beginning, but networking can definitely be beneficial for your journey in and outside of school. Your story is a testament to that! 🙌🏿💫
