Hey everybody - I know it’s incredibly early, but I just wanted to start this in case anyone wanted to start a dialogue about the application process or had heard anything about when applications open up. Thanks!
I heard application were open for a very brief time in August but will reopen in September.
Any clue why they opened in August? This seemingly didn’t happen previously.
Not sure. They did that last year as well.
Yeah, I luckily noticed and managed to apply during that short window. I’ve heard nothing from there though.
Anybody else surprised applications haven’t reopened yet today? I saw on their site it was supposed to. Not sure what to think of that.
It is open @GoBlue552021
Good looks. When did you apply? Hear anything about your supplemental packet yet?
Nope. Have you?
They start normally by offering those who have been to the immersion conference a position first, then they dig through the applications. MAKE sure you connect with previous bold interns. I’ve connected with 5 so far a few from my school and a few from nearby schools and they can refer you… I don’t know how long the waiting game is till anyone hears back or even when they send what department you would like to intern for. I applied in August, and also in September
Nada
Yeah, good to know. Thanks. I’ve been reaching out with other Googlers and thankfully I was also able to apply thought a referral link. I have a handful of people who volunteered to recommend me for the position as well. It’s a waiting game now!
Someone I know got their supplemental today! Still waiting on mine.
I applied back in August as well, I don’t think we will hear until after Nov 1st ?
what is a supplemental?
The supplemental form is step two for Google’s internship program, I believe. Since it is so early in the application process, it is likely that your friend has been a Google BOLD intern in the past, or a Google BOLD Immersion intern
Yeah, the supplemental packet is just additional information similar to what’s on your resume and what you’ve already provided. But here you can also state your location preference and department priority.
Hey guys!
I applied in August and received my supplemental packet this past Friday.
What departments did y’all apply for? I did Communications and HR
Congratulations. Do you mind sharing some information in regards to your app? Were you a Bold Immersion intern before? Do you have any previous internships/volunteer experience/job experience? Major/GPA?
I was lucky to app early on also in August and still waiting for a reply, I was able to get a referral from a someone on the Google brain team I worked with previously. Hopefully I get this opportunity.
Thank you! I did not do the BOLD immersion program and didn’t have a referral.
I’m a communications major/PR minor with a 3.6 GPA. I have professional experience in writing and social media management so that may have helped.
They get SO many apps I’m sure you’ll get the supplemental form soon! After I filled it out I got an automated message saying to be patient as they received such a huge response and that I would be contacted between October and April if I am selected for an interview.
Best of luck!!
