This year’s theme is “Top Secret Mission” -- you’ll have to use all of your spy know-how to win. We’ll also go over the cool internships and full-time roles Google’s hiring for! Here’s what you’ll need to do to participate: - Assemble a team of 4-5 students from UWaterloo (a team of four students having a CS or SE background is strongly recommended). - Pick a team name & team captain - Register here <https://goo.gl/1fhsbS>: https://goo.gl/1fhsbS **Each team member must register individually** - Please register by Oct. 11th.
