Getting the Job at Facebook - International Student Edition

Onboard is excited to present “Getting the Job - International Student Edition” - a series where we interview international students who have accepted full-time and internship positions at exciting companies in the US. Each episode will introduce a new international student and discuss their recruitment strategies, motivators, and processes that helped them get where they are today. Our third episode features Tuzo Mulunda, a sophomore at Harvard University. She is originally from Kenya Tuzo and will be joining Facebook University's Data Analytics Track as an intern this summer. It was demotivating when companies didn’t have the courtesy of telling her that she was rejected and never responded after she tailored each resume to their culture. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:40 Getting to know Tuzo 1:18 Coming to the US 2:10 Process looking for internships 4:55 Apply for internships 6:21 Starting as a sophomore 7:52 Employers not sponsoring 11:15 preparing for the interview 12:49 Answering questions you don't know the answer to 14:46 Facebook Universities Data Analytics Track 16:33 Advice to international students The Onboard platform was designed to provide international students with a digital personal student advisor that’s always available; we help students quickly complete administrative processes and provide exclusive access to real-time insights through our international student alumni community.
