Bridge the gap between "Student" and "Professional" with InternHub.
The transition from college to the professional world is broken. Students are stuck between "Ghost Jobs" and "Skill Gaps." For the Contra Makeathon, I built InternHub—a tool designed to help Indian students navigate the internship market with data, not guesswork.
What makes it different?
Live-Status Verification: We kill "ghost jobs" by verifying active listings daily.
Skill Gap Analysis: Don’t just see what you lack; get the exact Coursera and YouTube resources to fix it.
AI Match Scores: Real-time compatibility tracking to ensure you're applying to the right roles.
Smart AI Drafts: Personalized cover letters that highlight your strengths instantly.
