Got 2 team match rejections for Google DS Internship, is it experience gap?

Feeling a bit discouraged and wanted to sanity-check with others who’ve gone through this. I’m a Masters student at a target school, with a few solid DS/ML internships but no full-time experience yet.

Feeling a bit discouraged and wanted to sanity-check with others who’ve gone through this. I’m a Masters student at a target school, with a few solid DS/ML internships but no full-time experience yet. I applied for a Google Data Scientist - Product internship and have gone through 3 team match calls so far. I felt the conversations went well, but unfortunately got 2 rejections and am still waiting on the third. I spoke with a Google senior DS who told me the DS landscape is extremely competitive right now and that many teams are leaning toward candidates with 5+ years of experience, even at the internship role. Does anyone know if teams often pass because of experience level? And is there a limit to team match calls or rejections? Would really appreciate hearing your experiences!
