Dealing With Multiple Offers
So you’ve gotten tons of internship offers—that’s great! You can submit your resume as many times as you want (but pay attention to the other requirements). You may not get an offer right away, and that’s okay. Once you do get a response, be prepared to respond in a professional manner, as that will get you one step closer to your goal.
Important points to consider:
If you have the right skills, you might get a call from a recruiter to interview. Be professional in your follow up and use LinkedIn to do company research. If you have already accepted another offer, there is a polite way to respond while still keeping doors open for future work.

Thank you again for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
