Fall internships...COVID?
Hello,
So I am a junior heading into my senior year. I don't have a ton of CS courses under my belt (only finishing data structures now) but I have personal experience and landed a top 5 bank to work as a software engineer internship this Summer. Prior to COVID I had my heart set on taking a year off college to do internships, thus narrowing what I am actually passionate about before my final year of studies.
Obviously COVID has turned the world upside down. I am lucky to be doing a virtual version of the internship this Summer, but now am really unsure what the fall will look like. My questions are: do you think Fall software engineering internships still will be running (either online or in person - just operating) ? Would Spring internships?
I had applied to Google's fall internship and I read many others received a blank we are not looking anymore email the same day as I so I wonder if some companies are starting to halt intern hiring for the fall already? (I could've easily just been not chosen - but many receiving same day is cause for suspicion)
If I cannot get a fall internship and it is hopeless pursuit I should try to plan this so I have something else going on.
TLDR: Will there be CS fall internships for undergraduate student wanting to plan ahead? Do you have any leads on these? (Or year-long program)
