## A resume structure for a first software internship

Use education and expected graduation, technical skills, two or three relevant projects, and work or leadership experience. Put the strongest evidence near the top. Paid engineering experience is not required to describe substantial coursework or personal projects honestly.

Avoid listing every language you have seen. For each selected project, show what you built, which parts you owned and how you checked that it worked. A local test is a local test, not proof of production scale.

EDUCATION
Example University — BS Computer Science, expected May 2028
Relevant coursework: Data Structures, Algorithms, Databases

TECHNICAL SKILLS
Python, TypeScript, SQL, Git; unit testing; REST APIs

PROJECTS
Campus Equipment Checkout — course team project
September–December [year]
• Implemented a Python API and SQL schema to record equipment loans and returns for a four-student course project.
• Added authorization checks so students could view their own loans; wrote tests for rejected requests.
• Reproduced a duplicate-return bug with a test fixture and added a transaction check to prevent it.

Transit Status Viewer — personal project
May–July [year]
• Built a TypeScript interface for a public transit feed and added empty, loading and request-failure states.
• Documented setup steps and known API limits in the project README.

EXPERIENCE
Example Campus Help Desk — Student assistant
September [year]–present | 8 hours/week
• Logged support requests, reproduced login issues and documented steps for escalation.

AVAILABILITY
[Actual full-time dates and location constraints]

## Tailor to one posting without inventing experience

For Atlassian, the sample can highlight the tested API and algorithms coursework because those facts address the listed fundamentals. For Databricks, the same API project can lead with the design, implementation and bug investigation. These are two small posting-specific decisions, not evidence that every employer favors the same skills.

Weak: “Developed an app.” Better: “Implemented a Python API and SQL schema to record equipment loans and returns.” Add a measured result only if you recorded it, including the test conditions.

## Application worksheet

Step	Your evidence
Eligibility	[Graduation / return-to-study / location / authorization]
Posting	[Employer / role ID / saved official URL / check date]
Two relevant requirements	[Requirement → actual project or work evidence]
Availability	[Dates / weekly hours / location constraints]
Follow-through	[Submission date / confirmation / next action]

## Keep the recruiting-season list usable

The next source check is due October 29, 2026. Check each active listing weekly and again before applying; replace its status when it closes. An unspecified deadline stays unspecified. At the next recruiting season, verify the new posting and eligibility instead of changing only the year. The worked resume does not need a seasonal rewrite.

## Your checklist

[ ] Verify graduation and enrollment eligibility.
[ ] Check location and work authorization requirements.
[ ] Open the official listing and confirm applications are still accepted.
[ ] Replace every fictional project and skill with my own.
[ ] Test portfolio links and remove private repository details.
[ ] Save the submitted resume and application confirmation.

## Sources and method

We read both official job descriptions on October 22, 2026, followed Atlassian’s Apply link to its candidate entry screen, and opened Databricks’ embedded application form. Neither supplied a closing date or cutoff time zone. Atlassian’s attachment requirements beyond the candidate entry screen were not verified. Application access at a check does not guarantee the role remains open.
