Dear all, The Wikimedia Foundation will be participating as a mentoring organization in the upcoming round of Outreach Program for Women<https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/JuneSeptember/…rd>. Two out of the six women<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_for_Women>who qualified for the internship during the last round were Indians. Hoping to see many Indian women qualify for the mentorship this time! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Sumana Harihareswara &lt;sumanah(a)wikimedia.org&gt; Date: Fri, Mar 15, 2013 at 10:26 PM Subject: [Gendergap] please spread the word about Wikimedia's paid open source internships for women To: gendergap(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/JuneSeptember/SpreadThe… We'll be participating as a mentoring organization in the upcoming round. The interns who are just finishing up their current round with us: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_for_Women Some key points: * USD$5000 for 3 months of full-time work * can work remotely from anywhere * doesn't have to be coding; documentation, testing, systems administration, marketing, and design are also possible * newbies to open source are welcome * applicants don't have to be students * trans women and genderqueer/genderfluid folks are welcome * applicants should START NOW since applications are collaborative! If you know a motivated woman who has never worked in technology before, who's a good communicator and a diligent worker, and whose career is stagnating, this is the PERFECT opportunity for her to cross-train and start on a new, more lucrative path! Please spread the word. -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Gendergap mailing list Gendergap(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/gendergap -- Netha Hussain Student of Medicine and Surgery Govt.
