MongoDB Dublin Student Builder Day

​A one-day builder event for students and recent graduates who want to build with MongoDB and explore intern and graduate opportunities.

​The day is practical, collaborative and hiring-focused. You’ll get a technical introduction, starter templates and support from MongoDB engineers and the Give(a)Go team, then build in teams and share a small number of demos at the end of the day. The demos replace formal judging.

​Who should apply

​We’re prioritising penultimate-year students, final-year students and recent graduates interested in software engineering and technical roles. Strong second-year applicants are also welcome. Applications are reviewed based on your profile and what you have built.

​MongoDB skill badges are encouraged and can be used to prepare in advance of the hackathon.
