Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The Amazon Women of the World Spring Technology Insight Event was a 4.5-hour long online event that included a hackathon and a panel with women in the industry at Amazon, and information about the application process for the 2025 summer internship. It was a very enjoyable event that I highly recommend to other students. I am honoured to have been invited.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was greatly insightful to hear from women within Amazon and their journies. I definitely gained more of an understanding of how they got to where they are and what is involved in each of their roles. The leader did a great job explaining the application process with amazing advice.
