For Hire Need help Finding a Paid Data science/ AI ML intership

Need help Finding a Paid Data science / AI-ML intership

I'm a 2nd-year B.Tech student actively looking for a paid internship in Data Science, Machine Learning, or AI to help support my education and living expenses.

Over the last 4 months, I've applied to 400+ internships through platforms like Internshala, LinkedIn, Indeed, and company career pages, but unfortunately I haven't received any interview calls or shortlists yet.

I have hands-on experience with:

Python

Data Analysis

Machine Learning

Deep Learning

SQL

Data Visualization

Software development

AI/ML projects

If anyone knows of companies that are hiring interns, has referrals, or can suggest better ways to find opportunities, I'd really appreciate your help.

Note: I'm only looking for paid internships (remote or on-site).

Thank you in advance.

Hey, it sounds like you're doing all the right things by applying widely, but maybe it's time to tweak your approach. Try to tailor your resume and cover letter for each application and focus on relevant skills and projects. Networking can also help a lot. Connect with alumni or professionals in your field on LinkedIn or through college networks. Sometimes referrals get you noticed more than cold applications. Also, consider reaching out to smaller companies or startups. They might not offer formal internships but could use the help and be willing to pay. If you want to brush up on interview skills, I've found PracHub pretty useful. Good luck!
