    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • I challenged myself in difficult coding challenges in the Hackathon portion of the event and then talked to a panel of Amazon Software Engineers in a Q&A session. Towards the end they talked about information on the application process for internships with an Amazon recruiter and followed with what is offered to the people in this event to support that process.
