*********************************
Speakers: Mr. Mike Bufano, University Programs Specialist and Ms. Naomi Robert, Senior Software Engineer - Google
Seminar Topic: Diverse Opportunities at Google
Abstract of Talk:
While Google is often on campus speaking to software engineering opportunities, we understand that many students may not be interested in pursuing a career that involves coding as a primary task. And that's okay! This presentation will cover some (not all) of our other non-SWE opportunities that we have for university graduates with non-CS backgrounds. We will additionally be able to offer insights as to how to best stay informed of these roles and for the most effective approach in preparing to apply for any role.
