Is the Coursera IBM Data Science Certificate actually valued by Indian employers, or is Intellipaat/IIT Roorkee the safer bet for placement?

I see a lot of praise for international certifications on this sub IBM Data Science Professional Certificate on Coursera, Google Data Analytics, etc. And sure, the content quality seems solid. But here's my concern: Indian recruiters, especially at mid-size companies, may not recognize these as much as they would an Intellipaat certificate or something co-branded with iHub IIT Roorkee. The IIT name carries real weight here in ways it might not internationally. So my question is specifically for people who've been through hiring in India: Does a Coursera certification help or hurt you compared to a domestic paid program? And is the IIT Roorkee branding on Intellipaat's course something that actually comes up in interviews, or is it just a selling point?

How can I get Vacation work opportunities for an Electrical Engineering Student in Johannesburg?

I’m a third-year Electrical Engineering student at the University of the Witwatersrand, and as part of my graduation requirements I need to complete 29 days of vacation work. I’ve already applied to the advertised opportunities and company websites I could find, but I’m struggling to secure a placement. I’m also on LinkedIn, but I’m unsure about the best way to approach people there — who to contact, how to ask professionally, and whether networking directly is appropriate. If anyone has advice, recommendations, or knows of companies still accepting vacation work students, I would really appreciate the help.

How should I determine which area of engineering I want to excel in, does it matter Should I already know where I want to work after college and how can I find jobs/interships right now??

I'm going to college next year and I'm not exactly sure what I want to do in the future, I know I want to be some type of engineer and possibly minor in physics. I'm debating whether or not I need to go to a well known expensive school or settle for a less known but affordable one.

When looking for internships, how can I stand out from other applicants with skills that may be the bare minimum?

I am studying Computer Application Development at a trade school. I often view postings for open positions that are way out of my skillset. I am worried I have not accomplished enough despite working constantly. I would like my next job to be in industry, but am struggling to find open positions as well.
