I’m an incoming freshman at NU planning on majoring in Computer Engineering. As someone whose eventual goal is to become a software engineer these videos have been extremely helpful so thank you so much 🙏!!!

[funnycutiepie]

see you in GHC this year Lucy! ❤ thanks so much for sharing all the prep and tips

[elisepolo]

thank u for making this video !! definitely making me feel less anxious about it

[eesmile]

Thanks for your info. It is really helpful for me. I will attend the GHC this year too, I hope I can see you there!!!

Hi Lucy, this is quite an insightful video! Could you please shed some light on how to make the best from virtual GHC, as I'm attending for the first time, virtually this year? Thank you in advance!

[apurvisaini]

Hi Lucy, thank you for this video! I wanted to know where can we find the list of companies attending GHC this year?

[churchilmoondra]

Thanks for all the info especially regarding the preparation for the interviews. Also, does GHC send out an email for the list of companies or do you have to make a list on your own from the sponsors page? Also, I will be attending GHC this year, and hope to meet you there. Thanks once again.

Do people print out their resumes to give to recruiters?

[shridhikhandelwal]

Hi! Any tips from your Goldman Sachs interview? I have the same one at GHC!

[himabindukrovvidi]

I uploaded my resume a long time ago but haven’t received any emails. Is there anything I missed out on?

[ravennnnn]

Hey Lucy, thanks for posting this very informative and insightful video! This is my first year attending GHC so I’ve been a little stressed but your video definitely helped. One thing I’m concerned about is that despite uploading my resume early (like 3 weeks ago), I still haven’t heard from a single company. People are saying that they are getting emails from recruiters asking them to apply, but it’s been radio silent for me. Do you think that generally there would still be a chance for people to get an internship going into GHC without any invites?

[krishimanek]

Hey Lucy! I did upload my resume to the database but I haven't been contacted by any companies. Any advice/ help would be appreciated, thanks!

[shalakatakale]

Is there a list of companies that come for the career fair at GHC? Is the list available on the website after we buy tickets or is there a way to find out which companies would be participating before?

[subhikshaganesan]

do the virtual tickets get sold out like the in-person tickets as well?

[roopasingam]

Hi, Where can i find the list of companies that are attending GHC'23

[vedantkokane]

How did you prepare for coding assessment i.e online assessment

[pratikrandad]

Hi Lucy,

I hope this message finds you well.

Having recently watched your YouTube video on the Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC), I found it extremely helpful in my preparation. I'm a graduate student at Northeastern University, actively seeking full-time roles in the Data domain.

I'm contemplating attending GHC in person, but I have a question. As a male attendee, would I have the same opportunities for company interviews as women do at the event?

Your guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

[zhaohongyan]

Hi Lucky, it's really helpful! So according to what I heard, some companies will hold interview directly at GHC booths, but some are not, they just let you apply on their website? Even if they can provide a referral, but I think we can also easily get referral on the Internet or Linkedin. So it that worthwhile to line up and wait for a long time just for a referral?
This is my first time so I don't know exactly what it's like. Usually how many companies do you able to talk to in one day? And how to know which companies are interviewing on site?
Thanks!!
