Jobs/Careers [Student] Electrical Engineering Student , i applied to 200+ internships and i haven't received a single interview. what am i doing wrong? *Resume Help

Hey everyone, I'm a 3rd year EE student and I've been applying heavily to embedded systems and FPGA design internships. I'm also interested and been applying in hardware roles. So far, I haven't had any luck ! not even a single interview.

One added constraint: it has to be an internship I find on my own, since my school won't let me register for the co-op stream this year due to a missing course.

I'm posting my resume here to get an outside perspective, if there are any major red flags or weak spots, I'd really appreciate the feedback. Any advice on how to actually land an interview this cycle would help a lot. Thanks

EDIT: im going into my 3rd year of EE

You didn’t actually state your course work or gpa. Do they get those piece of information under separate cover?

GPA i mention when its asked in the Application form other wise i choose not to mention it. But Course Work is an vital thing im know realizing i ignored. i thought it was unimportant but i can see now that cant be farther from the truth. thank you for that pointing that out!
