Transcript: "Siobhan Qadir: So would you recommend contacting sort of smaller businesses? Because I think when I talk with international students... Dhruv Khrisnaraj: absolutelySiobhan: I want the big name and you go but there’s the flexibility of a smaller company.Dhruv: absolutelySiobhan: the chance to do more.Dhruv: so I always follow a 3 to 1 methodology. It's three applications for start-ups, two applications for mid mid-level companies, and one application for a large company.And the reason why I follow that is the large company applications are so much longer compared to a mid-level company in a small scale.So the amount of time it takes to apply for a start-up for three applications is equal to the amount of time it takes to apply for two companies to mid-sized companies and one large scale company.So as an international student, do your own research.Make a list of small scale maybe medium scale and large scale companies and follow the 3 to 1 approach.That way you’re spreading your wings and you're seeing what works."
