For the large number of college students that have lost their summer internship opportunities due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still hope. Many companies are still hiring, and others are moving to virtual internships. Intry is helping college students discover and land new internship opportunities through its suite of resume optimization tools that help them get seen and unlock their true potential.

“It’s important for college students to get the early experience that will contribute to their career development down the line,” says Jennifer Sethre, CEO and Founder of Intry. “Many students are still discovering who they are and what career path suits them best, and Intry can help them find those answers. ”
Many students are still unfamiliar with the hiring process, not realizing that a majority of resumes are never seen by recruiters. Applicant Tracking Software (ATS) measures the number of relevant keywords in a resume, meaning that if a resume lacks enough of the right keywords, it gets filtered out without ever being seen by a human being. Intry’s Jobs2Resume tool gives college students the power to overcome ATS software; simply copy and paste the desired job’s description into the creator, and it will optimize that resume, populating the appropriate keywords for a customized resume for each job they apply to.
