What can I do to get a student / new grad job? /u/Z-e-n-o CSCQ protests reddit

I’ll be graduating with a CS degree from a good Canadian university this year, and I’ve been applying to entry level jobs since November with little success.

Situation:

  • I’m just an average to above average student, no exceptional accomplishments.
  • I only have a single internship from a basically unknown company.
  • There’s been so much conflicting advice regarding projects, I have no idea what I should be doing.
  • I’ve sent out over 100 applications to pretty much any job opening looking for a CS degree, and have received a single interview out of the bunch.

Worries:

  • Because I’m from Canada, I’m worried that the need for sponsorship excludes me out of any US jobs.
  • Since I have so little intern experience, my resume is just getting auto filtered.
  • Some other factor that I haven’t even thought about.

Here is an anonymized version of my resume: https://imgur.com/a/46H9IHR

I’d appreciate any advice on what steps I can take to improve my chances of landing a job, thank you.
