Quantum internship: You have it and you don't have it at the same time. Until you open your email. You can know how long the internship is for, and you can know how much you get paid, but not both at the same time. If you get this internship, then there's another person just like you on the other side of the country that also gets their internship at the same time.
go guys, applying gets you the 50% of acceptance, you are in an intermediate state Status = .5 + .5, the status will collapse as soon as you read the confirmation letter.
A summary of the key points and other important aspects to consider while preparing for competitive quantum internships: 1. Start preparing early for the internship: find out your interest (software/hardwre/research/educator), familiarize yourself with the relevant background and try do a project in a similar direction at your college before applying for your first internhip in a competitive place or abroad especially 2. The three important categories of internhsip namely, hardware, software and research may suit people from specific backgrounds. For example, Hardware demands expertise with EM, RF, Microwave and thus quite suitable for electrical engineers. Software is mostly suitable for computer science students or people with good coding experience. Research is where physics and math students may suit the best as they can have a better sense of quantum theory or the device physics. But then anybody can work with anyfield with the right skills irrespective of the background. 3. In resume apart from your past projects relevent to your internhsip area, carefully mention all your soft skills: effective communication, team-work, problem-solving, meticulous nature, project management etc. 4. The subject knowledge from the following books can help you get into the different kind of quantum internships: Quantum Computing and Information by Nielsen and Chuang, Microwave Engineering from David M Pozar, Quantum Optics from Gerry and Knight, Programming from various sources on C, Python, Qiskit etc. These books are just some standard text books that can give you an idea of the topics you will be bumping onto every now and then in your quantum internhip journey and beyond (you are of course free to choose any resource you like). Although it may become quite overwhelming, these books can give you the mastery over the subjects. I believe fundamentals of quantum computing, microwave engineering, quantum optics including light-matter interaction and programming knowledge form the important (if not all) pillars of quantum computing education and research. 5. Apply to as many places as possible for internships. For international students, also consider accepting offer from multiple places and applying visa to multiple places. These days getting a visa has become a bigger problem than getting an internhip. So, having applied to multiple countries may help you in getting approval of atleast one within the desired time period. However, I am not so sure about this multiple visa application and if it's even a good suggestion. 6. For finiding quantum internships apart from usual google search, try be active in linkedIn and twitter and follow the right people and quantum companies. Checkout websites of quantum companies time to time. Checkout websites like www.quantiki.org ,www.qt.eu , www.quantumcomputingreport.com etc. You may also ask your seniors and Profs. at your home institutes. All the very best!
really great post, very cool 💯 From my own history if I can give any advice is to think outside the box, put yourself out there in a professional manner, don't fly under the radar or follow the perceived status quo. Tenacity, grit, and guts. Push forward don't give up, believe in yourself when nobody else does. You CAN make a difference, follow your sparks of interest. Rise above, speak up, act like the professional you strive to be!
This is fantastic advice thank you so much! There is so much to digest here, I’ve been trying to balance whether I want to focus on one source of information, or take bits and pieces from multiplie sources and try to synthesize information that way. For example recently I’ve been reading earlier chapters from Mike and Ike, but at the same I want to start learning more about Qiskit. I’m curious whether it would be more beneficial for my learning to say, really dig into one source as much as I can or try to divi up the time I spend on different approaches and learning to quantum information.
Nice video! However, Pytorch and Pandas are libraries/frameworks within the Python ecosystem. They have their own specific syntax and functions but I wouldn't go so far as to call them their own programming language.
Really helpful video! I was wondering if someone could let me know how common / plausible it is for a PhD student working in metamaterials and cavity qed (theory) to transition into quantum computing in industry?
I think it is very plausible. The most famous quantum computer today, superconducting-circuit based, runs on the principles of cavity-qed in a circuit level called as circuit-qed. The physics of the qubit is mainly the interaction of microwave light with matter (here a qubit or two-level system). Check out the profile of Prof. Alexandre Blais (and his co-authors in similar field) to know about the theoretical research opportunities in that direction.
The video covered too less about the Research Scientist summer internship part, if doing it next time, please try to cover the tips for the people applying for these positions as well, and also include what is expected from them and how should they go about it
Hello there! As a Physics undergraduate, I'm interested in pursuing a career in quantum computing. Could you please provide me with a step-by-step guide on how to get started in this field?
Is it possible to get an internship as a self-taught student? No related to a university. I have taken moocs from fundamental physics and cs to quantum subjects and developed my own projects but I am not enrolled into grad/undergrad school :c
You did not mention about the specific areas that the hiring manager seeks in a student applying for a research based internship. Can you elaborate a bit on that.
Is the internship for locals or even for foreigners? So can I apply from another country and do you have "ban-list" for some of them? And the last question - is there any opportunities to come with family?
Nice my country isn't listed.... Anyway, I never worked with quantum computers before, my knowledge come from your online textbook and a couple of fun stuff I did on IBM q experience. I also have experience with classical computing and programming as I am a CS major. Maybe next year I become more qualified, hopefully.
May I know the last date to apply? The undergraduate links given in the description are not working. The page I landed upon says "Sorry, the page you are looking for cannot be found and might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. It is recommended that you start again from the homepage. Feel free to contact us if the problem persists or if you definitely cannot find what you’re looking for." Could someone please help?
Amazing video! Does IBM have any plans in the future to accept high schoolers into their internships given they are qualified enough? I have completed a QC internship before that was available for high schoolers and would say I have the potential to succeed at an IBM internship, but all of them require you to be actively pursuing an undergrad degree
@@ko-Daegu the Q-munity High School fellowship was open to high schoolers that basically taught you Quantum and at the end you had to make a project to prove you actually understood stuff. I didn't really learn the Quantum Physics behind it, but I learned the software and stuff
This is really informative. One question is that the application says that u need a high school diploma. Do I need to have it by when I apply or can I have it by the time I do the internship if I get in? I am a high school senior. Thank you
WOW ! She is a legend - landing a high profile job at IBM despite have zero first author journal publications. She has some conferences abstracts as first author and many co-authorships but nothing notable. How can we take her seriously as a scientist. She can be a good educator but there are many many better scientists than her in quantum science.
Hi. I'm a Bachelor's student at my University, I'm studying antennas and communication technologies, mostly RF, EM etc. I'm at the initial stage so I'm not very confident if I should think about applying for the Internship. But if, say, I were to apply, what pathway should I choose? I mean I'm inclined towards hardware so I know that's the stream I'll be rowing in but i would still like to get some guidance.
i am UG student in computer science , 0 experience i really want to do research in quantum computing, what do i do , plssss assist anyone having experience!!!⁉⁉
Hi, I'm recent graduate in AI and was working on Quantum AI and ML. Would there going to be any software role opening on that front? Thanks for the video, it was really informative.
@@qiskit are there any opportunities for 2025 summer? I'll be starting masters in Wisconsin Madison US, wanted to know if any openings would come in hardware sector. I'll be specialising in IC Chip fabrication and stuff
So cool I actually just searched for this video only to see it was posted 14 hours ago. I do have a question or maybe two. Should I apply to the software or hardware internship positions, if I’m a beginner to Qiskit, and a sophomore in my studies? If the minimum requirements are experience in hardware or software, are there other roles within IBMs quantum operation, that pertain to other skills, for example business development?
@@abdullahyousef3596 I think you can, but if you do, you would need a strong reference since you will be competing with people with stronger academic credentials!
@@abdullahyousef3596 from someone who they would give a damn. For eg if a renowned professor in the field recommends you that would be probably good. But keep in mind these things happen very rarely.

Nothing is stopping you from applying, but the postings literally state that applicants are required to be currently enrolled in an undergrad/grad program.
