Interested in hearing how H-1B sponsorship happens from the inside? Dan Beaudry, former head of campus recruiting at Monster.com, shares the potent job search system used by many international students to find U.S. employment. H-1B's are won in ways you likely don't expect. What you'll discover in this presentation may surprise you:<br>
· Learn how to secure H-1B sponsorship at companies that have a policy against sponsoring H-1B visas.<br>
· Learn why 80 percent of open jobs are never advertised - and how to find them before anyone else.<br>
· Learn why human resources is often an obstacle instead of a conduit to finding a U.S. job-and how to bypass it.<br>
· Learn why submitting résumés online is not an effective use of your time-and how you can better invest that time.<br>
Dan’s programs at MIT have been very popular in years past. Find more information about him, and The International Student’s Guide to Finding a Job in th United States at <a href="http://www.powerties.net">www.powerties.net</a>.</span></div>

Google has been at the forefront of exploring new ways to shoot 360, VR stories. As the medium develops, how can VR be used to raise awareness about science-related project? How can it be used to tell stories about our bodies, our health? VR in developments sometimes mean collaborations with doctors, neuroscientists, data scientists. How can scientific knowledge inform creation and creation inform science?</span></div>

We’re excited to announce D. E. Shaw Exploration Fellowship 2017, a unique educational opportunity taking place at our New York City headquarters from July 19 to 20. Given that women are underrepresented in the global alternative investment industry, we specifically designed a program in an effort to bring together talented and intellectually curious women enrolled in Ph.D. programs. These women will receive an introduction to our firm, insights into our rigorous approach to finance, and several professional and social networking opportunities. By engaging with a cross section of people at the firm, from recent Ph.D. graduates to senior leaders, these women will learn about the challenging problems on which we work, as well as the transition from academia to finance. Participants will receive a $2,000 stipend, accommodations, and travel to and from New York City.</span></div>
