Summer college internships are SUCH great experiences, and as a uchicago physics major who had a different internship each summer, they certainly did show me what I like and what I absolutely hate. So I've compiled a quick guide with literally everything I've learned over the years, ranging from going through my entire senior year uchicago resume to the cover letter that landed me a job as a data scientist, to even interview prep and recommendations!

It's a long one, but I really hope this video teaches you how to get a college internship! Comment any questions you may have down below. :)
