Recruiters look at what you've built before they look at where you went to school.
1

Build two or three real projects

Pick projects you can explain end to end. A sports-stats tracker or training app gives you a story only you can tell.

2

Practice data structure and algorithms

Most technical interviews include coding problems. A few problems a week through the season adds up.

3

Clean up your GitHub

Pin your best repos and give each one a clear README. Recruiters do click the link.

4

Apply early for internships

Big tech opens summer internship applications as early as August. Have your resume ready before fall season starts.
