I personally would look at your phrasing of your current position. Right now you are positioning yourself as a 'choice' that another company should make, and by stating that you 'need' an internship - I think you are diminishing yourself.

I would look at rephrasing it to be focused on the benefit, not your 'requirement to find a job to support yourself'. On this note - a lot of your content is focused on fairly hard to define elements like 'getting practical'.

I love the energy and approach - but wonder if you would be better suited with content that is more specific to:

• what type of company you want to work for (culture, projects, location if important)
• what inspires you - who you are, what interests you
• less on where you worked, more on what you did there, why, what you learned

We all want to fail forwards - but there are, IMHO, better ways to phrase that. It feels like an empty attention grab vs a real statement - I would much rather hear that you want to explore, push, expand, challenge your current 'you', than you want to fail and learn from that.

A couple small notes - you mention 'Please get in touch, if you think, we could be a match!' I would reword this as: - If you think we could be a match, please get in touch - and make the 'please get in touch' a link to your email or some way to contact you.

When making the statement 'It's both academic and actual work-work as well as projects that are in the making right now.' - you mention 'both' but then say 3 things, your academic, work-work, and projects in the making. I would re-think this statement. As well - 'Feel free to look around' is stating the obvious - instead - maybe an action? - something to stimulate thought about your projects, not sure what haha.

Sorry for the rambling! Cheers Willem

Love the video

I agree with Willem. If you position as design thinking, then you definitely have to think in the perspective of your users, the people that is looking at this = HR or hiring managers.

It's a bold move to state fail forward, but to a lot of companies, failing is an expensive exercise. That's why people don't setup to fail, but setup the best to succeed. Though, that's where you can tell whether companies are in for the long run to learn fast and improve or take slow calculated risk moving forward. Both have it's own merit, so pick the angle and be ready when someone ask you what comes with the result of failure.

Talking about writing project shows initiative, but it come across a little bullish (to me). Focus on how you can create value together and be ready for anything. Internships are meant to be a learning experience and you're there to provide that cover for the team you'll be supporting. Think like sports, you have to make bench first before making a starting player, and supporting the team is a sure fire way to go!

Think of the audience you want to appeal the most. The angle you tap on is great, but now it's just a matter of tightening your story. Your narrative should create enough tension for someone to be intrigue to find out more. Then bring that energy and personality to the table for a in-person session. Good luck Frederik!

I don't remember the last one fully but I do recall that I didn't like it. This... This I like. Very engaging and it actually captured my attention. Great job! I'm sure you'll find a solid internship.

Mate that video is brilliant, well done & good luck!

Nailed it! Big improvements over the last version. I'd be surprised if you didn't get a great internship with this.

I like it Frederik, you'd certainly be in the top of our list ;)

Way better than before, and now i got a face of yours. I will have a deeper look this evening and will try to write feedback :-)

I have interns every quarter and let me tell you that your approach is better than 99% of them. That video tho. Love it, well done. Make sure to select a place that will let you work on real stuff so you can experience successes and failures. Ask about your mentor and his story. Important :)

If you're looking for an internship in the product world, give me a call.

I think it's really good work considering that selling oneself is the hardest thing one can do.
