This guide is here to help you write your CV, nail your technical interviews and ultimately receive internship and job offers from your dream work place!
If you are a student and want to intern or work in Technology, you will probably have already heard about the fact that it is a pretty specific field and, in order to get a job, you need to show a different set of skills and go through quite a different screening and interview process than someone who applies for a job in any other field.
The main goal of this guide is to help you, the students of St Andrews, discover new opportunities from your peers and St Andrews Computer Science alumni and learn how to approach and achieve a goal of getting a job in your desired company by improving your CV and practising solving problems which are typically offered in a technical interview.
The most important feature of this guide: you are more than welcome to add your own experiences, comments and opinions! We want this document to be a live and ever-growing helper created by people who can share their experience and knowledge!
- General information about internships - here you'll find information about what is an internship, how and when to start applying, what you need to know to get an offer and what you need to show in your CV, and how to make most of it.
- Past intern experiences and contacts - this is the page where everyone can share stories of their internships and find contacts if you are just looking for your first experience.
- General information about full-time positions - everything regarding the specifics of getting a job in technology is here. How to improve your CV, perform best during an interview, when to apply etc.
- St Andrews alumni stories and contacts - contacts of St Andrews alumni who work in technology and would like to share their contacts and/or success
