Google's Diversity Internship Program”
Never judge a search engine by its interface.
Behind that simple search window is one of the most complex technology infrastructures in the world. And it's run by an equally diverse group of people. At Google, we don't just accept difference - we celebrate it, we support it, and we thrive on it for the benefit of our employees, our products and our community.
With this in mind, Google offers the Building Opportunities for Leadership & Development (BOLD) Diversity Internship Program for Summer 2011. This program is designed to provide exposure into the technology industry for students who are historically under-represented in this field.
Google invites you to come join us for a unique summer experience, including an 11 week paid internship and professional development workshops. Take a chance and discover what it's like to work at a technology company. Be challenged. Become an expert. Work together and make an impact. Be bold.
This summer experience includes:
- The position: An 11 week summer internship with a business unit.
- Exposure: A unique glimpse into a business career at a technology company.
- Professional development: Attend weekly Google business case study workshops, tech talks and skill-building seminars.
- Fun: Social activities, community building and networking. Build a relationship with your peers.
- Mentorship: Be matched with a Googler, other than your manager, to guide you through your summer experience.
