I don't know where Michelle went, but i noticed that a lot of buzzfeed employees went to pretty prestigious colleges.

[@kaverisharma8064]

She went to Dartmouth. It's in her LinkedIn profile.

[@MsTCK98]

indeed. Safiya went to Stanford, and Ned went to Yale

[@gureum_6020]

.

[@gureum_6020]

timas also Eugene went to USC, chris went to UCLA, and i believe Ashly graduated from Pepperdine. buzzfeed must be harder to get in to than many presume.

[@ITouchYou4TheLulz]

Jesus now I feel guilty for turning UCLA down. v.v MY CHANCES TO BREATHE THE SAME AIR AS EUGENE'S FINE ASS ARE DIRE AND NIGH.

[@topgametrend3431]

as a youtuber , you still are working for google

[@TMHonfire102]

No its not the same, getting paid by adsense linked only a youtube channel is for the poors.

[@gracetran]

Very well said! As a current Google employee, I can attest that even a job at Google is still JUST a job - no matter what you end up doing, wherever it is, you gotta be sure it's something that you really, deeply love, that will make you excited and look forward to doing the work, instead of miserable that you need to drag your butt to work every morning. :)

[@naeemfaheem8806]

umm can I ask you how you got a job there? xD

[@nitishrawat98]

Hey can u help me how to prepare for google?

[@ChaoticMatters]

I can't even find one internship that gives you a dollar to work there. Google pays you hourly and for everything else you need!

[@TonyMon16]

Ye and she still left it ... Google were desperate to get woman in to coding so it wont look sexist and can be cool... ye looks like they cant even pay MOST woman to learn coding...i would have taken her internship and i would still be there being the best damn coder they had.. but nah i dont have the right name or genitals. Someone like me would have to ace their tests, 100% and have a proven track record already. She got it handed to her even after failing most of the interview process. Very unfair.

[@fannypinka1973]

yes the world is out to get educated males, this chick should check her privilege. I'm sure she was not qualified at all, and yet she had a vagina. Poor men everywhere are losing their jobs to incompetent women, and minorities, ugh! The humanity!

[@alexhadfield9805]

Antonio Aguilar Actually it is. It may be basic, but everyone has to start somewhere. It may be basic coding, but it is still coding.

[@TonyMon16]

+fanny pinka, Here we have it guys the ugly truth ,feminism is not for equality, they simply hate men and want everything handed to them for free. They could give a fuck about anyone else. Quite simply that opportunity could have gone to someone else more deserving and loyal. But no, your emotions are more important...this is why usa will no longer be a super power in 20 years time and china/India/middle east will crush you. Have fun for now , but once strength of the dollar falls down to pitiful levels you will see how stupid you been and then it will be " OH MEN SAVE US!!!", but by then all the men will be weak, super emotional pansies who never fired a gin in their lives.

[@TonyMon16]

+ what comment was to me? I dont get what you trying to say tbh.

[@alexanderfortier5488]

Love your videos. Keep being awesome!

[@MichelleKhare]

Thank you :)

[@alexanderfortier5488]

Holy shit. 170 likes. That ranks about 7th on my highest liked comments, my highest being one with 2671 likes, which was only because I commented early on a Tonight Show video.

[@georgemendez5245]

this video was sooo honest, you've just earned a new subscriber

[@Pikachuwhereareyou]

I like the way your articulate your ideas & just the way you executed this video, Didn't even realise it was 6 min long :)

[@annikacachia2086]

I get so inspired by your videos michelle !Theyre so amazing :) Xxxxx Your hard work is truly appreciated !

[@MichelleKhare]

Xoxo

[@EvaSlash]

5:18-5:35 Best advice ever. Too many people I think fail to understand this. You can save a lot of headaches and heartaches if this advice is followed.

[@AkashBhojraj]

Hey Michelle, A great message in the end.. "Do work that's fulfilling for you" Loving this!!! Thanks for the video!

[@adi._.]

Love your videos Michelle!! Keep up the amazing content!! :)

[@numberoath]

Thank you so much for making this video. (Michelle) Watching a video like this and having someone explain a story from their pass is such an enlightenment. Sounds like you had a great internship, and it seemed so full-filling but you weren't happy. It's good to know reaching for happiness is always the way to go.

[@rarri1982]

im glad i clicked on this. it gave me way more insight to who you are as person not just the buzzfeed gal. dude you're crazy smart keep up the awesome content

[@ArnedoProductions]

You're incredible at telling stories, keep up the amazing work!!

[@toripartridge3338]

You are so inspiring to me!! I love you & your videos! Never stop! ❤️❤️

[@andresebastian5286]

I didn't know you were a Google BOLD intern. I just left Google full-time. Hello fellow Xoogler!

[@ballett.beautiful8345]

Andre Tacuyan why would you left?😱😂

[@andresebastian5286]

I left to work on my own new startup :)

[@hellofahmid2331]

Which startup would that be?

[@andresebastian5286]

Confidential for now but you'll find more info here soon playground.global

[@hellofahmid2331]

Can we talk? [e-mail]

[@toscae]

such a great video!! btw I loved the made with code series, so cool to hear you worked on it! also great advice at the end 👏🏻

[@btwmynameisliz]

You're absolutely right. It's not about the company but working in a job that is fulfilling. Thanks for that!

[@debadritagupta6364]

You are a true inspiration!❤

[@CrazzySKShizz]

So much respect for that! Very less people are actually able to do what you did. I am learning to be this gutsy. Much love. xoxo

[@artyshefartsy]

What a beautifully detailed video! Love it!

[@sarahjpeters]

[@oyehoyesyaapa]

This is actually a useful channel! Thank you

[@laurenloanzon6506]

This was such an easy and awesome video to watch! Usually I hate long talking videos but in no means, did you drag on things you wanted to say. I love that you were straight to the point and I think that's what made me listen to every second of this vid

[@kishanm4358]

Loved the message at the end!

[@most1998]

You're my all time favourite from buzzfeed, I love your channel so much! Google is my dream job and I'm working so hard to get. thank you so much ❤

[@amaraahmad7153]

You seem like such a motivated and high achiever, you inspire me so much 💛💛

[@SundayswithSunny]

This is so great! I'm thinking of applying for the BOLD internship this summer, and this really gave me some insights! Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

[@Multidimensionaldimensional]

[@Helen-ki9gg]

Thank you thank you for this video! Been looking into going into the tech industry and internship programs and this was such an open and honest yet respectful video, thanks for sharing!!

[@juliamonge8620]

These videos are sooo helpful! Please keep making them! Much love for you and all that you do!

[@audiophilian]

I could listen to you tell stories for hours. I love your authenticity.

[@jordanbordelon1301]

It's so cool that you're from shreveport! I moved from west monroe to shreveport for college. Its so awesome to see someone come from here and be so successful! You go girl! You're an inspiration!

[@jordanbordelon1301]

P.S. There are more that 3 starbucks in shreveport now! WOO HOO!

[@gloriachoi9645]

[@saraht1865]

[@MissDashing]

Michelle you said it, creating your own is the best feeling, even if you only have one person watching : )

[@andresperalta4436]

Love your vids! Keep up the good work

[@MichelleKhare]

[@mollym7140]

+Michelle Khare that's impressive! Like really, it's I think what 10% who get in for internships??

[@lylrocker]

Michelle you are such an inspiration to me! I'm a multimedia major (since I couldn't get into the film major) but I still love the major I'm in and intend to use my film skills I carry as well to join the entertainment industry. Just like you I hope to get much experience and achieve my dreams :)

[@jamieliin]

[@vladdorules587]

Keep up Michelle! Your videos are amazing :) !

[@laszlodemaeyer6226]

I can relate so much to this! This is exactly how I felt about my experiences at Google :) Even if you feel it is not the right place for you it is still hard to dismiss the prestige tho :D Keep up the good work!

[@yazminfrances]

michelle, great advice and great experience. love it!

[@TheTechTwins]

I really enjoyed this video! Interesting how you went from Buzzfeed to Google. My brother and I also make videos on how to break into the tech industry, based on our internships at Apple, Tesla, and Microsoft. Keep it up!

[@whythissucks829]

So to sum up, theres no actual help on how you got the interview. great.

[@jadel1927]

crayons You need stellar grades from a stellar college.

[@GiantCradle]

Disclaimer: I have no experience at Google. I have friends who went for summer internships there as software engineers. I'm speaking from my experience when looking for internships at different industries, although I hope that some are applicable to Google as well. The screening part is probably one of the most important steps because they literally receive thousands of applications and would only look for keywords in your resume: university, GPA, work experience, leadership experience - standard stuff (this takes about 3 seconds). If you don't have those, make sure that something else really stands out, for example (no idea whether she included this in her application) her being a professional cyclist, competed, and won. Google allows you to drop names of current Googlers, but not sure how useful that might be. Depending on which function you're applying for (sales & marketing for her, the other would be engineering), needless to say the subsequent selection process would be different. If she said that she had a case interview, your best bet is definitely to practice. Hopefully, it's not as difficult as that for consulting firms. Her last round was behavioral interview. I suppose we're already quite familiar with this. The goal is for both parties to get to know each other and to determine whether there's good cultural fit. By this time, it's highly likely that you'll get in.

[@owenwu4708]

1. Get into Harvard or and Ivy League 2. Get high marks from one of these prestigious schools 3. know someone who works at google and ask for a referral

[@5my9other93half]

Ugh, this woman is my crush. Too beautiful and too sweet of a person.

[@_rebeccalee]

I'm so glad I watched this video! I've always wanted to learn how to code to help the environment and create an app, and I didn't hear about Match w/ Code until now. So glad I got to sign up for such an amazing opportunity! Thanks Michelle!

[@521wallace]

Time to apply for the Bold Program! I did not know this was a thing and I am now really excited about the prospect of interning with Google over the summer. Not sure if I can get it, but it is at least worth a try. Thank you for the video.

[@youyou9405]

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS KEEP ON GOINGGGG

[@kirakiragirinl6872]

loved your message at the end :)

[@StanleyKuo184]

Great video! You give insight into one of the most coveted internship in the country if not the world. Just curious if Google offered you a full time position at the end of the internship. I'd like to see videos of you talking about being a athlete and what it takes to be one and maintaining motivation, as I have trouble sticking with my workout routine. Keep the videos coming and never stop being awesome.

[@MegIgarashi]

Great video :) Can't wait to see more!

[@prachigoyal1481]

You're so inspiring! Love you.

[@emilymarie7332]

love your videos! keep it up! do you still work with buzzfeed?

[@shivamrai2886]

I did BOLD too!! But I was working in the Toronto office.

[@protestingwithjimmy]

Hey! random question but did you go to university in Canada or the US?

[@shivamrai2886]

I go to a US university, when I was looking for an internship, Toronto was the closest place to do BOLD. So I had to get a work permit from the embassy.

[@protestingwithjimmy]

Do you know if they accept people from Canadian universities at the Toronto office?

[@shivamrai2886]

PWJ Yeah most people I worked with were Canadian students.

[@misaa2013]

Shivam Rai Was the interview process hard?

[@ktjrox11]

interesting work you do, btw, what books were you referring to in the video? like logical application, or are there any specifics?

[@NavjotSingh-jp2in]

Nice video! I like your work. Keep it up!

[@yuviwicks6339]

Love the honest talk

[@tk200895]

so you found your personal treasure

[@Jemike5]

Awesome! Tons of great information. Would you have to still be enrolled in College to internship with Google?

[@danielajoao13]

You just said it all with the fulfilling part. I just went though a similar experience. I was working in France and the paycheck was great, I had money for all that I needed and it was fantastic going shopping without looking at the bill. Needless to say I didn't make any savings, but it was great. But it was like you said, if the job is not what you love, if you don't feel great doing it, it's not enough. So I fired myself, I took the chance of getting back out there. It was a challenge, I hate interviews and I don't have confidence in myself. But now, I found a new job, I do what I love in an amazing environment, it's fantastic. I make a bit less at the end of the month but not dreading the week and not feeling that I want to rush home so I don't have to deal with the job anymore, it's fantastic and I really don't mind loosing a few bucks. If you do what you love, in a nice place where you can be comfortable, that is all that you need

[@carleyd9845]
