Google Information Technology Internship in Australia

Applications
are due by June 30, 2016 at 11:59pm PST. Our team will review applications on a
rolling basis and it’s in the candidate’s best interest to apply early. All
hiring will be completed by September 2016. Thank you for your patience while
we consider your application
This
program is designed to provide ex

posure to the technology industry for students
who are historically under-represented in this field.

Behind Google’s simple search box is one of the most complex technology
infrastructures in the world. And behind that infrastructure is a diverse group
of Googlers who design, build and keep the lights on for our users. We believe
that in addition to hiring the best talent, hiring for a diversity of
perspectives, ideas and cultures leads to the creation of better products and
services. We aspire to be an organization that reflects the diversity of our
users globally.

With this in mind, Google announces our third year of our Information
Technology Intern Program. Current students majoring in information systems,
information technology, applied networking, system administration, and other
majors with applicable experience are encouraged to apply. 

This program includes front line internal user support – either in-person or
remotely, a corporate engineering project, and skills-based training. 

We invite you to join us for the 2016 Information Technology Intern Program!

Technical support for a technology company is a big task. As a member of our
Information Technology team you are the go-to person for Googlers’ computer
hardware and software needs, providing front line user support for all of
Google’s internal tools and technologies. You troubleshoot, respond to
inquiries and find solutions to technical challenges. Beyond the day-to-day,
you improve the Googler user experience by contributing to longer term projects
and documentation efforts. You are highly technical and are comfortable problem
solving with multiple operating systems (like OS X, Linux, Windows) and a range
of devices (including desktops/laptops, phone systems, video conferencing and
various wireless devices). You occasionally partner with various teams
including security, networking and infrastructure. You’re a fast learner and
great communicator who can support the IT needs of global offices of all sizes
and Googlers of varying technical backgrounds.

Responsibilities
  • Provide
    support for desktops/laptops and user access to corporate network and
    applications both on the network as well as through remote VPN access.
  • Assist
    with moving equipment and users.

    Information Technology, Applied Networking, System Administration, or
    other degrees with applicable experience.
  • Experience

    technically-focused service environment.

    organizational, communication, leadership, and customer service skills.
Area
In little more than
a decade, Google created one of the world’s largest global computing
infrastructures for both internal and external use. Chances are that we exceed
every example of a “large installation” you have encountered in your
experience as a network, systems or security professional. Using our unique
technologies, along with open source tools, we keep Google’s products and
services running, robust and secure. Our objective is to create solutions that
allow people to work and communicate in new and innovative ways – giving back
to the world’s technical community whenever we can.
