It’s intern season at Google! Interns are located at offices all across the globe, and represent a broad diversity of backgrounds, concentrations and interests. So inspired by Stephen Colbert’s Better Know a District , we’re bringing to you “Better Know an Intern!” The series will introduce you to our interns across the globe, and will get you the scoop on the impactful projects they work on, their interests and passions, and what it’s really like to intern at Google straight from the source.
For our third post, meet Samuel Clarke, a Freshman Engineering Practicum intern in Mountain View, CA.
This summer, the Mountain View office welcomed Samuel Clarke into the Freshman Engineering Practicum program. Although Samuel has participated in previous tech internships at other companies before, he was drawn to Google because it is “the standard for doing everything exactly the right way things should be done...Google seemed like the place to go if you wanted to be surrounded by a huge pool of amazing people who are the experts in their field.”
Throughout his 12-weeks as an intern, Samuel has been working on automated user interaction tests for the Android Google Play app. Essentially, this means that instead of having Googlers manually go into every device to make sure that the Google Play store works, he creates tests to do so automatically. In addition to working on his project, every day this summer, Samuel has made it a point to have lunch with Googlers across various technical departments and VP levels to learn about the work they do. “I don’t think I would have gotten that at another company. The people here are very approachable.” Samuel says the technical as well as interpersonal experiences from this summer have served as a valuable foundation for his future plans; next summer, he hopes to return to Google and work in roles that will help him continue to grow in new areas, particularly with his mechanical skills.
Once his internship is completed, Samuel will return to the Georgia Institute of Technology as a rising sophomore; there he is involved in the school’s programming team, mobile application development group, aerial robotics team as well as a number of religious organizations. Regarding the lessons that he would like to bring back to school with him this fall, Samuel says this: “Google’s goal is to change the world and redefine how we experience our world through software; I want to bring that mindset back to my campus.”
