Hi! I am a 3rd year Comp Sci student who wants to get a cybersecurity internship. I am going to apply broadly (so I will apply to IT roles and more).

So I am assuming that it is easier to get a cybersecurity internship compared to a cybersecurity entry level job, since internships are restricted to students, so not everyone could get them. However, there are not many cybersecurity internships out there compared to software developing and IT.

I have been doing some work on the side, and here are my experiences and accomplishments:

• have a ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity certification

• Have CompTIA Security + certification

• Have CompTIA Network + certification

• volunteer incident response analyst (I repeat, that I am a remote VOLUNTEER in this role where I report phishing emails)

• 1 cybersecurity project where I make a vulnerability scanner

• 6 months part time junior software developer at a startup company

I know there are a lot of posts on this subreddit of people asking “what are my chances of getting a job with this… and so and so,” but I don’t see much about what are the chances of getting a internship with these qualifications, which is why I am asking.

I live in Canada

Any advice or comments will help!
