Hi Folks! I am sophomore majoring in Computer Science, I want to make a career in software development and actively looking for internships. I am confused about the skills required, every job posted has a different skill requirement that’s why I am hesitant to apply. Can anyone help me with this issue. I would really appreciate.

Learn 1 laguage very well (java, c++, python), enough to crack leetcode problems with ease. Promising fields are also cloud eng (you can get some certifications) and ML, but I wouldn't be too concerned to over specialize yet. Demand for good coder is crazy, find a good tech company (even small) and start from there

Okay I've read alot on here, a lot about money, a lot about finding mentor's, some taking less money for a job that you obviously asked for more and are settling for. Let me start by saying what the hell is y'all's problem. I'm sure growing up y'all were taught morals and integrity, honesty, and loyalty. The real world out here is torturous, it's is extreme hard, intimidating, manipulative, all around negative, if you allow your mind to do all that to you.
