TECH GIANT “PROUD” TO STEP UP, PRAISING “HIGH STANDARD” OF OUR EVENTS
Google have explained their reasons for stepping up and joining the Graduate Fog Employers Club, our new coalition of fair and responsible employers of young people.
Kerry Lale, Tech Lead, Talent and Outreach Programs at Google – who has attended three of the Club’s four events so far – said:
“The Graduate Fog Employers Club is a fantastic initiative that Google is proud to have joined. We have been impressed by the high standard of the Club’s events, which present a unique opportunity to discuss hiring challenges and solutions with peers from other companies. We’re looking forward to partnering as we strive to build a more diverse and inclusive workforce together.”
EARLY ADOPTER: Kerry Lale represented Google at the Club’s spring and summer 2018 panel events, and joined our Club Members’ Winter lunch at the Ned in January 2019
