Want to be an OpenStack Intern?

Internship programs like Outreachy and Google Summer of Code offer focused internship opportunities with a number of free software organizations. OpenStack, being one of the biggest open source organization, plays a big role in these programs by funding and mentoring contributors. Programs like Google Summer of Code are open internationally to students and Outreachy is open to women and other underrepresented groups in free and open source. This session hopes to demystify the process of contributing to OpenStack and spread awareness of the programs available to those who are looking to start their careers in OpenStack and open source. As former interns, we will share our experience and help the attendees to understand the application process and flow of any open source project.


What can I expect to learn?
  • Learn about the existing programs to get involved with open source projects 
  • Learn about how to contribute to any open source project keeping OpenStack as example
  • Help understand the application process
  • The do’s and don’ts
  • Tips to make a stronger application
