Hi all,
Good morning! Best of luck to everyone who has exams this week or starting
soon :).
Last Wednesday we had our Termly General Meeting, and on Saturday we have
the penultimate Geek Night for the term.
Have a great week!
Thomas and the rest of the committee
EventsGeek Night 7 <https://www.facebook.com/events/1964046043825276>
*Undergraduate Social Area, Department of Computer Science - 7pm Saturday
(7th week)*
Please note that as some of the committee have exams we won't be running
themed Geek Nights for the rest of Trinity - but they will resume in
Michaelmas!
Join us for an evening of relaxing, chatting, games, coding, and the usual
selection of food and drinks. It is recommended that you bring your laptop!
We will also have an Adafruit IoT starterkit and a BBC micro:bit if you are
interested in learning some embedded programming.

Ensoft develops software that connects the world. The Internet depends
every day on the code we write - it's challenging work that matters. It's
also fun - being really good at writing complex software is what we enjoy.
We've grown by taking a few of the best Oxbridge graduates each year, and
investing heavily in their training. It's an ideal environment for bright,
creative people who want to develop rapidly. If you bring the computer
science knowledge and coding skills needed to tame Internet-scale complex
systems, you can solve challenging problems as part of a world-class
software engineering team.
Do you want to find out more? Come and chat to us at the Summer Graduate &
Internship Fair at the Oxford Town Hall on Tuesday 6th June, 2.30pm to
5.30pm.
Our application process is very simple: Email a CV to
recruitment(a)ensoft.co.uk by midnight on Monday 12th June 2017. Interviews

it is still very competitive for places.
Entrepreneur First Student Partner opportunity

We're on the lookout for a Student Partner to help us change the way the
most talented students think about their careers. At Entrepreneur First we
specialise in supporting people to build technically defensible companies
from scratch and we're looking for ambitious Student Partners to help us
inspire and engage the best student technologists to build a startup with
EF. This is a great opportunity if you're interested in tech startups and
either see yourself founding one or working for one in the future.
*The role*
You'll be helping us grow EF's brand at your university and encourage the
best student engineers to start companies. This is a community-facing role
and you'll be the eyes and ears 'on the ground' - gathering first-hand
insights about our customers and helping them to kick-start their startup
journeys with EF. You'll be focused on building a technical community and
running tech and startup-focused meetups and events. You'll play a key role
in driving applications to our EFX Internship programme enabling students
to experience working for a startup first hand.
