Participants will have the opportunity to attend workshops given by current Microsoft seniors as well as the opportunity to speak to recruiters and get feedback on their CVs. 3Hack mentors will consist of people from all skillsets, committee members from an incredible amount of different societies at Imperial College London, Microsoft employees and many others including an entrepreneur whom have accumulated five-digit revenues as a teenager and a mobile app developer who has easily gotten over a million downloads. They will be here to help you! We are proud to have connected so many different societies of Imperial College London.
