Finding internships/jobs worth going for can be a little annoying. At first, you should probably just apply to any reasonable company, especially for practice. But if you can get more selective, great.
LinkedIn, Indeed
These are the main two job boards people use to find jobs. Go to their own individual pages for more info. Just note that it’s widely thought that you should try to apply on each company’s own application portal when possible rather than using LinkedIn’s easy apply/Indeed Resume.
r/cscareerquestions, Blind, HackerNews
These are all social media boards, mainly differing in regards to audience. These can be helpful for insight on any sorts of questions you’re looking to have answered regarding CS jobs. r/cscareerquestions is a lax and closer-to-layman place to discuss CS job information, whereas Blind is pretty much a counterpart: obsessively focused on salaries and feels much less welcoming, intentionally trying to feel exclusive.
Which site to look at depends on what you’re looking for. if you wanted to ask about a job at a specific company, r/cscareerquestions would be a little awkward to use as it’s mostly used for general information, whereas everyone is brutally honest about work at a specific company on Blind. From what I can tell, HackerNews seems to be for more experienced users, particularly users that are heavily interested in start-ups and industry developments.
If you have a question or curiosity, depending on what it is, one specific site can probably be a better resource than the other, e.g. if you’re looking for a gentle discussion about the future, it probably isn’t going to help much to ask on Blind, where you’ll most likely just be told to make more money – that discussion might fit much better on r/cscareerquestions. Note that HackerNews can also be used like an psuedo-job board - there are very active threads dedicated to recruiting - and Blind also has something similar to Glassdoor for company experiences.
Glassdoor, levels.fyi
These two sites are mainly focused on experiences at a company. Glassdoor is pretty popular across any job really, and has info on companies, like reviews, salary info, interview questions, etc. levels.fyi is all about salaries at specific companies given some amount of experience in CS jobs. Technically Glassdoor is also a job board, but I don’t think many people use it for CS jobs, hence why it doesn’t have its own page.
