I am finishing my undergraduate studies soon (CompSci) and am currently writing a paper. I am still deciding whether to submit it to a smaller conference or to a workshop at a big conference. (I don't think it's enough for the big conferences themselves).
One option is to submit it to a workshop, which is at the ACL conference in Toronto. I would like to work in Canada for several months. As a European and a graduate student it is difficult to get a regular work visa, but through an internship it should be theoretically possible.
I have read that at such a big conference there are also many recruiters.
My background with a single workshop paper is probably not very interesting there in general, but still I wonder if I would have realistic chances to get an internship opportunity in Canada through going to this conference?
