A Physicist's Guide to Software Engineering Jobs
Event Start:

Event End:
2019-02-07T17:00:00
Event Information:
I was a physics/math major at UBC and spent 7 years doing cosmology research before joining Google in 2015 to work as a software engineer. I'll try to summarize the career wisdom I picked up along the way, give advice on how to get a job as a software engineer, and paint a picture of daily life working for a large internet company with a goofy name. I'll also give an overview of the sorts of problems software engineers get to tackle, and how they compare to the problems you get to work on in P&A.
Event Location:
Hennings 201
Speaker:
