💼 What is Project Intern?

Project Intern is a career advisory/mentorship program where we link you up with a senior in the computing field. They will have a 1 hour career conversation with you and try to answer questons you have. We encourage you to apply if you would like advice on your resume, how to approach internships, etc. We strongly recommend you think about the kind of help you need when filling out the form and be as specific as you can to ensure you get the best help possible

Please note that we have a limited number of mentors, so it is possible that not everyone will have a mentor assigned to them, despite our best efforts. We hope you understand and would request you sign up as early as possible :)

This beginner friendly hands-on session will take the participants through the basic syntax of Python as well as fundamental programming concepts. This is first installation of the series in collaboration with SDS. In the subsequent week’s Hackerschool, we will use some cool third-party libraries to showcase the extensibility and ease of scripting of Python with some real-life automation use cases as well as data manipulation and visualisation.
