Internships are a great way for early stage academics to get a feel for industry - the tech hiring freeze is hitting hard😑
Buuut I'm now back on the market so hmu with ideas👀😅
Working at DeepMind would definitely be a dream comes true for me. I did not get pass the screening phase last year. I got through this year's screening. Then the freeze happened :( If only... https://t.co/81eFaU1VHH
