*Do more. A lot more. Technical Internship Opportunities at Google EMEA * Here at Google, we're not looking for people who will just localise technologies developed in other countries, nor simply engineers focussed on improving infrastructure. What we are looking for are people with outstanding technical skills, creativity, potential and passion who can help invent end-to-end technologies from scratch; stuff that will interest and inspire millions of users across the world. During an internship with us you'll have the opportunity to contribute to projects in a direct and meaningful way. We're taking into account your skills and interests when determining which of our small and dynamic teams you will be joining. Your pre-assigned host will find projects that are right for you and work closely with you during your time with us. We're confident that an internship with us will be a rewarding experience that will develop your ability to programme at a global scale, deepen your understanding of Computer Science and allow you to connect with outstanding people from all over the world. Your internship will most likely take place in our engineering centre in Zurich, Switzerland<http://www.google.com/support/jobs/bin/static.py?page=studentseu.html&sid=zurich>.
