    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The Amazon Women of the World Spring Technology Insight Event was a 4.5-hour long online event that included a hackathon and a panel with women in the industry at Amazon, and information about the application process for the 2025 summer internship. It was a very enjoyable event that I highly recommend to other students. I am honoured to have been invited.
