Ideally, the companies you have interned with should offer you a full time position upon graduation.

Are you seeking a visa ? Lot of companies have stopped hiring folks who need visa

I am, what is so hard about providing visa that they avoid it?

Honestly the job market for AI/ML roles has been pretty brutal lately, even for people with internships and grad degrees. After sending out tons of apps and getting almost nothing, I started tracking which jobs actually responded and noticed a weird pattern - some never even acknowledged my application.

Turns out a lot of resumes just get filtered by these ATS systems before a real person even sees them. I went back and compared my resume to the posting line-by-line, realized I was missing random buzzwords even though I had the skills, just not listed exactly the same. Kind of demoralizing honestly - like, I did the work!

Might help to check your resume with one of those ATS scanners like ResumeJudge, Resume Worded, or Jobscan. They show you how well your resume matches the job description and flag stuff that ATS bots usually skip. I tweaked my keywords and formatting a bit and at least started seeing a couple more auto-rejection emails, which is better than radio silence lol.

On your applications, are you mostly direct to company sites or through LinkedIn? And has anyone you know gotten an actual offer recently?

Yes i tried using them and working on my cv with claude to improve it a lot so I'm not getting ghosted just all rejections, I apply through their website if I see a close match with my cv but if Its less relevant I use easy apply, everyone I know was finding jobs easily but they were searching like 3 or 4 years ago so I'm not sure its me or the job market changed significantly in recent years.

Applying for roles can be tough, especially in AI/ML. Using PracHub for real interview questions and coding practice might help you prepare better and improve your chances.

the problem is I'm not even getting interviews to then think about passing them

Saw a job on LinkedIn applied for it and the CEO of the startup reached out to me saying he was game to move to the next stage of the process. Spoke to hiring manager and they even offered another position which matched my skills. Scheduled a full panel interview. Met with the team had a great chat, Founder even said "I guess you can start right away"..Hiring manager calls later says they'll update then boom that generic email hits my inbox. At this point you're just like arrrrrrgh😩

If you’re currently making 53K/yr and have about 1yr 1/2 of experience in X position and the company you are interested in says on Glassdoor that the average salary for your position is 80K, would it be valid to ask for that if you get the opportunity to get an interview?

I politely declined but he asked me to reconsider as he said "it would be unfair for the org for you to leave so soon."

Let me know a proper response.
