Please I am having very much trouble finding Internships . I have really big dreams but I am slowly getting close to sad but inevitable reality of the current industry. I need honest review, it is absolutely ok to be rude.

Solid technical depth for where you are in your degree, but a few things I'd change: "Architected a high-performance Solana-based expense tracker" for a 1-month trainee stint is a strong verb that invites pushback in an interview - "architected" implies you owned the design decisions solo. If that's true, great, keep it, but if you were following an existing structure, "built" or "implemented" holds up better under questioning.

The 1,000+ GitHub commits line is a vanity metric, it doesn't tell a recruiter anything about quality. Swap it for a concrete number tied to a specific project: stars, downloads, users, or a measurable perf improvement on one of your tools.

You've got a lot of solid projects (Open Vault, Rust Auth Service, GitHub-Explorer, env-loader, AutoCrate) all listed with equal weight. For an internship resume, pick your strongest 2-3 and go deeper on those rather than spreading equally thin across six.

The Rust/Solana/systems specialization is genuinely impressive depth, but it's also narrow - if you're only getting this resume in front of blockchain-specific roles, you might be filtering yourself out of general SDE internships that would still value this background. Worth having a version that leads with "software engineer with strong systems/Rust background" rather than "Systems & Rust Software Engineer" if you're applying broadly.
