Need Advice: CV Strategies to Land an AI Working-Student Role in Germany

Hi everyone,

I’m a third-semester Bachelor’s student in Computer Science (GPA 1.6), and I’d love to land a Werkstudent role in AI here in Germany. So far, I’ve completed CS50’s AI with Python and I’m working through the DeepLearning.AI/Stanford ML specialization. I’m comfortable with Python, SQL, C++, and TypeScript, and I speak German, Spanish, and English.

I haven’t yet built any hands-on AI projects or worked in IT, and I’m still deciding between areas like NLP, computer vision, or recommendation systems. Does anyone have project ideas or portfolio examples that would catch the eye of German AI teams? Also, are there any online courses or certifications beyond what I’ve done that would make my CV stronger? Any tips or suggestions are hugely appreciated—thanks so much for your help!
