I'm a grad student (formerly Amazon). I'm transitioning to a career in robotics/autonomous systems and my main interest is self-driving vehicle tech. I saw that Zoox, Nvidia, and Cruise have opened their 2024 internship positions and I'd love to do a graduate internship! I need to beef up personal projects for GitHub though so I'm wondering how long I have before applications close? Thanks! TC: 250k -> 0k
I would not recommend the AV industry in all honesty, try something profitable
Could you elaborate a bit more on this?
Cruise - like many other AV companies - are struggling to become profitable and it seems like there’s a long road ahead. The future outlook of the company is very uncertain at the moment
Don’t worry about beefing up your GitHub. Spruce up your resume and then practice for interviews.
+1 on xnz. Don't come here.
Is it just stressful because of the financial instability? Or is it culturally a bad company?
Both.
did u ever apply to zoox/hear back? ive seen absolutely no one get a zoox intern interview so far despite having damn near a 100 openings
Autonomous driving is a hard problem to solve and even harder to secure funding for the same
