Rising ChemE Junior—Can’t land internships, need advice

[u/Unable-Disaster7197]

Hey y’all, I’m a ChemE major going into my junior year and haven’t been able to land an internship the past two summers. I know I don’t have a ton of experience yet, but I’ve applied to a bunch of places and either get ghosted or rejected. I’ve also had a couple of interviews but never got chosen.

Could someone take a look at my resumee or give tips on what I could do better? Also, any recs and a list of companies that are open to students with limited experience would help a lot.

I really want to make next summer count. Appreciate any advice!

Are you just applying on websites and such? I landed two internship offers my summer from sophomore to junior year and the key factor was networking with alumni. I used linkedins alumni page for my college and spoke to our academic advisor who knew some of the alums, and she set me up. Worked amazingly well.
