“We’re loving the new student jobs site, including an updated page on some of the programs we offer in the US & Canada,” tweets Google Students. You see a quick snapshot of the website with this update.

The new website outlines some of the Google programs available on offer in US and Canada – the Ambassador Program, the Android camp, Code Jam, Engineering Practicum, and of course, Summer of Code among, others. The new site also outlines student jobs, lists programs and scholarships, and includes sections about life at Google and the hiring process.
