I’m looking to do an internship with AMD in Summer 2024 (yes I can work multiple internships back to back). I would like to know from former interns about how difficult/competitive getting an internship with them is.

Here is me :

age: 21, not in college, currently studying C, C++, and C#, intend on studying Python, Java, and Linux, will have certificates with large companies (like Microsoft and AWS). All of this (including proficiency with the languages mentioned above) by March 2024.

What are my chances?

    I really reccomend the Prefer Frequency in BIOS and using process lasso. The game bar works sometimes but it sometimes doesn’t and it’s really easy to set and forget with process lasso. This method basically ensures everything will be put on the frequency die (background, browser, productivity apps, whatever) and you manually put games on the Cache cores which is more intuitive than hoping the game bar works imo.

    There’s only one thing that doesn’t get mentioned often and I think it’s a bug. When you use PBO, CPU affinity seems to stop working correctly kind of annoying but you’re not missing much from PBO on these chips anyways.

    I’d recommend you look for a contract position. If you’re only available for a certain window of time, you can let them know because there are occasional short-term needs, or a case where there is only a limited amount of time left in a contract.
