This talk, given by a recent CompSci graduate from Keble, will explain how Google turns an idea into a product used by billions of people worldwide. It will focus on product design, strategy and team management as well as how Google takes entrepreneurial CompSci graduates and gives them immediate ownership of entire products at Google.

Please fill out the registration form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pi3U36euZu946rGVRX4mCbKq9HPvrPbC5nAtvJmype0/viewform if you plan on attending, as Google may be raffling some Chromecasts to those who do :)

About Learn to Code

During these events, there will be a mixture of interactive workshops and talks. We will be teaching you the basics of programming using Python http://www.python.org/. These events are good if you have zero coding experience, but they are also valuable if you already have started coding and would like to better your skills. We also welcome people who already have good coding experience as the more volunteers the better!

These events are always followed by our weekly Geek Night http://ox.compsoc.net/events/tags/geek_night/.

You can find out more information about this series of events over atox.compsoc.net/learn http://ox.compsoc.net/learn/

We also have a facebook group for discussion if you are taking part in this course: fb.com/groups/OXLearnToCode https://www.facebook.com/groups/OXLearnToCode/

...and a group for those who would like to volunteer:fb.com/groups/OXLearnToCodeHelpers https://www.facebook.com/groups/OXLearnToCodeHelpers/
