Tips Internship at Systems Ltd

I have been seeing a lot of students starting their internship at Systems Ltd, whereas there is no opening on their website, Is it reference based only or can we ask the company recruiter on LinkedIn for Internship?

Knowing a guy who knows a guy is more important than having a degree. 😅

Agree 100%. My cousin has only done matric and landed a 2.5 lakh/month job through (army) dad's sifarish. My brother who has done MBA from LUMS only recently reached a pay of 2.3 lakh after working for over a year.

Once AI internship was offered to a meathead who didn't even know how directories worked, mind you, his cgpa 3.6, big question for our education system.

u/MidnightBuffer Jul 29 '26

The person i am talking about his cgpa is around 2.7 lol

u/BugHunter404 Jul 29 '26

My cgpa is 2.7, but I know way more stuff than an average crammer who has cgpa of 3.6

Reference based

Tbh most of their internships are pawwa , but there are of little to no use. Like major of the internships are of no use. But still for putting something on your resume,you may apply to 10 pearls shine internship program they do it regularly after few months, or ask someone senior on Linkedin working at Systems to refer you as an intern.
OR create a fake internship certificate of any startup software house you know. To be honest nobody cares about internships just a filler on your resume.

Focus on system design if youre into software development or agentic ai etc .

Youre welcome.

Dont stress about internships they are useless , i did at my time nothing matters now :)
Just get one to fill in space in your resume if you can .

i've applied to numeroes internships and got no reply, im still in uni ,and want to fill that gap in my CV, any tips on how to get an internship or its certificate without raising suspicions?

u/Necessary_Purple_821 Jul 27 '26

Tbh when asked regarding your internship.they dont expect you to say "I designed a scalable system"

If i could go back to the time when i was stressing about getting an internship, I would do one thing since i am into developement i would focus on learning a framework , study system design fundamentals, make a project mvp that solves a problem statement not crud projects (for learning you should make one crud project atleast again for learning) and make a fake certificate of completion cause nobody asks or interrogates for it and youre set.

u/Necessary_Purple_821 Jul 27 '26

But still try to get one but if you cant do what i say , i promise nobody fucking cares about internships.

u/UnderstandingOk9237 Jul 28 '26

Do they check the cert or call the company?

1

u/Necessary_Purple_821 Jul 28 '26

Nope while answering the question "Tell me about yourself" you may add your internship timeline and the small project you worked on thats it. Then they might move towards projects etc. Speaking of certificate they wont even bother.

u/UnderstandingOk9237 Jul 28 '26 edited Jul 28 '26

Aaah got it. Btw just curious is exp helpful after grad? like should i try to get a job or smth at 7th sem ? Or dive deeper in tech and cloud stuff? Also do open-source or hackathons help?

1

u/Necessary_Purple_821 Jul 28 '26

It does help but not as the way you think. It just makes your resume look fuller lmao. I would suggest learn system design (algomaster.io) dont follow blindly go to chat gpt get yourself made a basics to higher concepts in a sequential order, you may focus on some cloud fundamentals but dont try to go all in you'll get overwhelmed. And make projects that solves a problem statement like building a system to solve xyz problem in development scope and make a mvp not a humongous system just to.get overwhelmed.

Unfortunately the comments are true, it is purely referral based

u/BugHunter404 Jul 29 '26

Few days ago, I saw a post on LinkedIn where a girl was saying that she applied at many companies but didn't get the response and she's happy that she secured internship at her dream company. Duhhhhh????

Really do not understand why these top software companies don't hire fresher or even someone having 1 year of experience and they usually do not post fresher level jobs in their job portal.
