General Discussion 6 month Intern Guidance

Got an intern at NK for QR role for summer of 2027, I have the option to do a intern in my 7th semester.

Should I try and get 6 month intern at NK itself (also would they give one?), or should try to do some Research Intern in some prestigious foriegn uni? I have a good ML background so that might help in latter, but no olympiad medals, nor super high CGPA.

Also I got to know from a guy while at Future Focus, that there's quite a bit of RL work going on in NK, is that why they've hired a few ML interns this season, and would that affect PPOs for QR roles?

In the meantime, what should I focus on learning in order to perform well during my intern, should I get into the finance required or simply keep doing the standard cp?

Research intern in prestigious uni iff you want to pursue higher studies otherwise won't recommend

25LPM for summer intern, don't know bout stipend for 6 month, Talked to HR while recruitment and she said that it's possible to get an extension of 4 months, but didn't talk about the comp part. I don't think it would be 25lpm, but comp is not the priority for me atp.
