A high school student from an EU country, aiming for a top 200-250 university in Computer Science, seeks advice on securing data science internships, particularly overseas. With two years of experience on Kaggle, including over 10 competitions and a bronze medal, the student has garnered around 4000 forks for their work. The student wonders when and how to start looking for internships, leveraging their achievements, and whether networking or nepotism plays a significant role in securing these opportunities. The student’s background includes a strong performance in national entrance exams, which could potentially lead to admission into a prestigious university. This scenario highlights the importance of early engagement in competitive programming and the potential advantages of international exposure in the tech industry.
