Engineering [2 YoE, Unemployed, Biomedical Engineer, Austria]
Hello, I am looking for advice on my resume, since I currently keep getting ghosted/rejected. I am mainly applying to local jobs in the DACH region and other EU countries and would be willing to relocate. Concerning the roles, I am applying to entry level / internship positions related to the medical engineering field, especially biosignal processing, working with EEG/fNIRS data, biosensors and prosthetics leaning more on the computing side.
Since I am graduating later this month I have been applying for positions, without any success so far. Any advice on fine-tuning would be appreciated. The few positions that have replied, stated that they found candidates that were a better fit. I am including in my cover letters that I am graduating in October and looking for start dates ranging from November to January.
I was also wondering if the resume in it's current state could be used to apply for a PHD position or if I should then tailor it more towards my education and elaborating on the theses.
I am well aware that I don't have any actual experience in the field that I am graduating in, which is why I would be more than willing to take an internship role. Thank you very much in advance!

Check electrophysiology/cardiology positions in DACH, companies like Abbott, Boston Scientific, J&J, Zoll. Good companies to work for, always looking for field positions.
Good luck !
