硅谷公司争抢扩招实习生

美国公司很喜欢招实习生，因为可以根据试用期的表现来决定是否给offer，这比一个时间不超过一天的interview，更能认识和了解未来员工的表现。很多大公司比如google，是给大部分inten全职工作的。try before you buy，加上花在实习生身上的钱肯定比全职员工要少，对公司自然很有利。从实习生的角度来看，有了好的工作经验，找到满意工作的可能性会大大增加。总之，是个对双方都有利的事情。

刚在华尔街日报上看到一篇文章，提到：

    Facebook今年招了550个实习生，明年夏天打算招625个；google今年招了1000个engineering summer interns，比2010年上涨了20%，2012年的数字还没出来，但是就算是为了跟其他公司抢人，也肯定要继续扩大数目。

    对Dropbox.com有了解的同学，肯定会对其创业团队的mit eecs本科血统很有印象，今年(2011)暑假实习生9个，明年要招30个，去年从美国五个学校招人，今年则把整engineering team的人派到十几个学校去招人。

    不光是大公司，很多小公司也在招收intern，甚至连投资的venture capitalists也在帮忙，狠一点的公司，总共30个人，要招10个实习生，而据调查silicon valley 93%的早期startup已经或者正在招收intern，

最近这两年毕业的孩子们，也算是赶上好时候了。能早出来就早点出来，眼下这个浪潮，不要错过。

对了，google今年收到一百万份工作申请。

好消息！不过还是cs啊!

Interns Are Latest Target In Battle for Tech Talent
Silicon Valley's talent wars are going younger.


Bay Area tech companies, already in a fierce fight for full-time hires, are now also battling to woo summer interns. Technology giants like Google Inc. have been expanding their summer-intern programs, while smaller tech companies are ramping up theirs in response—sometimes even luring candidates away from college.


Dropbox Inc. plans to hire 30 engineering interns for next summer, up from nine this year, says engineering manager Rian Hunter, who adds the company wants interns to comprise one-third of its engineering team.


The San Francisco-based file-sharing company this year dispatched its entire engineering team to recruit at more than a dozen colleges, up from just five schools last year, schmoozing recruits over dinners and through technical talks on subjects like how Dropbox reduces the amount of memory its desktop client uses.


"More interns means more opportunities to bring people to the company," Mr. Hunter says, noting Dropbox is seeking people as young as college freshman.


Interns allow you to "try before you buy," says Bump Technologies Inc. Chief Executive Dave Lieb, who plans to hire as many as 10 for next summer. He says the 30-person company pays intern engineers about $10,000 for a roughly 12-week stint, similar to what other tech start-ups say they pay.


Through last year's intern program, Bump nabbed Tom Greany, an engineer who dropped out of Imperial College London to work on the company's mobile app, which allows users to share data between phones by bumping them together. "To me, the choice was to help create the future or sit on the sidelines and think about it," says the 23-year-old, who says he doesn't know if he will return to school.


Ninety-three percent of early-stage Silicon Valley start-ups have hired or are hiring interns, according to InternMatch Inc., a website that helps college students find internships. The group surveyed companies that recently raised money from two Bay Area incubators, Y Combinator or 500 Startups.


In a new twist, venture capitalists have begun doing some intern legwork for their companies. Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, recruiting at 25 college campuses across the country, helped a cohort of its companies hire around 25 engineering interns for the coming summer through a new program called KPCB Engineering Fellows.

Kleiner's companies, including Klout Inc. and Twitter Inc., started notifying their new interns last week.


"Competition for talent is so fierce," says Kleiner partner Juliet de Baubigny. She says the firm may expand the program, which is currently for juniors in college, to others, including possibly high-school students.


Meanwhile, Facebook Inc. plans to hire 625 interns for next summer, up from 550 this year. Google hired 1,000 engineering interns this past summer, up 20% from the previous year. Yolanda Mangolini, Google's director of talent and outreach programs, says the company is still figuring out its target for 2012, based on its overall staffing plan.


Google generally extends offers to the majority of its intern class, Ms. Mangolini says. "It is one of the primary ways we find full-time hires."

- - ！！ 竞争激烈啊

Dropbox大公司么。。。。正式员工才20多个人。。。。

反正怎么招也到不了我头上

还没看出来么,现在好找的都是和CS沾边
数学的也去找CS,统计的也去找CS,什么的都去找CS的工作
找到工作的,大部分也都是编程

对啊，都是CS的好消息

跟别的专业比没多大意义，cs job market大，可是人也多竞争也激烈啊，每年出来的比别的专业都多很多。
还是那句话，最后你还是跟本专业的人竞争，成为本专业的牛人才是王道。
ps，如果你们专业其他人都去找cs的工作了，这对你不是更好吗，竞争的人少了啊。
做自己喜欢的事情，并且做好了，才能找到好工作。别人做墙头草，如果你不喜欢或者做不好，不一定也要跟着做，也用不着羡慕嫉妒恨，做好自己的事情就对了。

对的。提高个人能力就行了。

cs美国人学的少，需要引入大量国际学生。

拿签证占了不少优势，找工作本就容易些。
