Google BOLD Immersion Program 2019

Hey all - just sent off my application and applications close Feb. 1st. Figured we could all use a thread to connect and post updates as we get them. Thanks!

Hey, @GoBlue552021 I also just sent off my application, now to wait 4-5 months eeek!
Where are you located and whats your academic/career background if you don’t mind me asking ? :slight_smile:

Hey @kclmgrad I am already super anxious about it, hahaha! I’ll have to get used to I guess - it’s a long way till April. I am a sophomore at the University of Michigan. I have had three communications internships as well as some other business/HR related jobs and internships. I have been an active member (and leader) in my student government for the past two years. I’m sure theres more I could add, but those details will likely be the most relevant in my application. What about you? :slight_smile:

Hello everyone, I just recently submitted my application and @GoBlue552021 I also attend Michigan… hopefully we both get in!

@JP0204 No way! Would you mind sharing your stats? That’d be so cool if we both got in. Go blue!

Hey everybody, I emailed the Immersion email today to alert them of a change in summer plans (I got an internship offer today I will likely accept) and the automated response email said we would all get answers back in March. Which is earlier than originally quoted, so I thought that was good news!

@GoBlue552021 I recently just transferred to Michigan to be in the School of Information, I’ve held already 2 IT positions and was a TA with pending research opportunity along with multiple clubs I was heavily involved in. I also have an internship this summer – hopefully, I get in!

That’s awesome man! I’m rooting for you. It’d be really cool for us both to go. Whenever I hear back or get any updates, I’ll be sure to post in here!

It’s March! Anyone hear of anything yet?

Hello! Thanks for starting this thread. I haven’t heard anything yet. How about you guys?

Not a problem! And I haven’t heard anything yet. Luckily we’re almost halfway through March and should hear hopefully soon.

Hey all! I also applied, and haven’t heard back yet. Does anyone know if BOLD Immersion recruits early for the BOLD Internship for junior year? (as in you can be extended an offer before traditional recruiting takes place in Fall?) Thanks, and good luck!

Hey! I’m still waiting on a response as well. The initial email quoted we’d here in March, so shouldn’t be long now. And yeah! The program also serves as a pipeline for talent at Google. They sincerely want you to join as a BOLD intern if you’re invited to this program. To my hndertsanding, you still would have to go through the interview processes and such, but you do all of it slightly early and accelerated, also with a heavy preference. I read somewhere that nearly every single person invited to the Immersion program is asked to come on as an intern after the participant applied for the internship. Hope this helps!

I’ll also be sure to post in here immediately whenever I hear back (good or bad)! Praying for good though, haha.

Thanks so much for the info! Yes I will as well, good luck!

Hopefully we hear at some point this week - the email said March, so I am hopeful. They could run a little later though. We’ll see!

Made an account just for this, but just got the acceptance email! Excited to meet everyone else that got in :slight_smile:

Congratulations! I didn’t get any email so I unfortunately do not think I got in. :frowning: Definitely disheartening, but I am for sure going to apply for the actual internship. Would you mind sharing your stats? Congrats again - I am so happy for you!

Yeah, just got the email that I didn’t get in. Best of luck everyone!

Just got the email saying I didn’t get in. :frowning: Wishing you guys good luck!
