When is the best time to apply for data science summer internships?

• Answer:

  Now! In the past, most tech companies would usually start looking for data science interns a little bit after software engineering recruiting (which usually starts in late summer/early fall). Things are changing though, and more and more companies are recruiting data science interns in the early fall - winter every year. If you're waiting to prepare more for interviews, don't. Most companies have data science teams that are only looking for 1-4 interns to join their team, so spots are running out fast! Keep in mind that it also takes time for recruiters and hiring managers to process your resume, so just apply now!
