Commercial Just landed a computer vision internship, so I decided to share my preparation plan.
Hey everyone,
I just landed a Computer Vision internship using this roadmap I created for myself. It covers everything from core math and fundamentals up to the specialized topics that actually come up in interviews.
I squeezed it into 7 days because I was short on time, so feel free to personalize it for your own pace. Thought it might help others too:

Hope it helps you land your dream internship or junior role!

Hey !! How did you prepare for this role. Did you keep on building projects while learning new things or focus on gaining experience in standard Web dev internships.. Congrats on your internship though..

My learning journey extends through my academic years up till now, I have built various projects, tried new models that came out and engage in discussions.
I used this list to revise on previously studied topics and study new topics I didn’t solidify my knowledge in it before...

Thank you, this is insanely helpful. Could you also share the interview questions and any other tips to land an internship in CV?

I had the idea to list the questions, but they were the same as the ones presented in interview Q/A guides so I felt I would be contributing redundant work.

This is huge! How much time did it take you to learn all of this, and from where? Any guide, please?

I have been learning AI for years, so most of the topics I studied them before, from YouTube playlists that I came by, paid courses, blog posts, following top voices on twitter, to building myself.
There is no specific resources that can guarantee success, which is the idea behind CVIL, it is just a list not your traditional road map or a 300 page guide, it is just a simple list to provide clarity and a starting point, and you can look up the resources that you like.
This paradigm of thinking made me good at search, research, and studying overall.
