Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg (left) meets programming intern Michael Saman (right) in today's Silicon Valley, it is becoming increasingly difficult to hire top tech professionals, so that major technology companies are using every means to reserve talent, These include direct hiring of high school students for internships and increased interns ' treatment. Facebook, the world's largest social networking site, says it has started offering summer internships to college students who have not yet enrolled. LinkedIn, the famous professional social networking site, also launched a summer internship program for high school students two years ago. Many start-ups, including the holiday rental service website Airbnb, have even lowered the minimum age limit for recruiting students to 16 years. For these companies, this is done entirely out of the need to keep up with the big trend in Silicon Valley to promote entrepreneurship among young people, especially now that young people and technology elites are sometimes encouraged to start a business rather than join a large technology company. Peter Thiel, an early Facebook investor, Thiel 100,000 dollars (about 615,700 yuan) to drop out students under the age of 20 to help them pursue their dreams. Many young people see the News-reading app developer Summly Ltd, founder of Nick De Aloisio (Nick D ' Aloisio) as his role model. After selling summly to Yahoo, the 17-year-old De Aloisio became a millionaire overnight. Facebook hired Michael Saman, 17, last month to sayman a red carpet similar to the Oscars, and arranged for him to meet Mark Zuckerberg. Sam took her mother by plane to meet Zuckerberg, and Facebook offered him a summer intern. "When I received an email informing me that Mark Zuckerberg wanted to see me, I had to first make sure it wasn't a prank," said Sam, who has just graduated from Miami High School in the US. It was unbelievable to see him. "The importance of tech executives ' attention to recruiting young people is being taken seriously by tech executives. "Recruiting talent is the top priority for our company and talent is our most important asset," said Jeff Weiner, CEO of Jeff Venas, who spoke about the company's interns this year, in a May earnings analyst conference call. These interns may join our team. "The reason for companies to pursue younger talent is that more and more people are entering the technology industry at a lower age," he said. With a lot of programming tutorials and software collaboration communities on the Web, high school students can develop mobile apps themselves without having to get a degree in computer science. Many have entered the technology industry through programming contests and competitions designed to discover software flaws. James Anderson (James Anderson) passed this last year.One way to become an intern for the Internet start-up company Planet Argon. Anderson, 13, took part in a meeting with the Ruby on Rails programming language and met with Planet Argon founder on a hike. He then applied for an intern position before his high school life began. "I feel that age should not be a barrier to programming," says Mr Anderson. "15-Year-old Anderson is going to be in junior high School (Flintridge preparatory parochial) in the California State of Felicity," he said. He taught himself several programming languages and developed them according to the Web tutorials. Interns get more than 6000 dollars a month. Interns in the U.S. are getting better at summer interns in monthly income rankings. According to the Glassdoor Inc. published figures, industry standards for engineering interns include free accommodation, transportation, and a monthly internship pay of more than 6000 dollars (about 36939 yuan), compared to the average monthly income of US households in 2012 ( About 26350 yuan) is still high. In February this year, Glassdoor pointed out that among the 10 companies with the highest interns ' pay, except Exxon Mobil (Exxon Mobil Corp.) Outside the technology companies. Daniel Tahara, a 21-year-old Daniel Tahara, began working for Dropbox, an online storage company this month. "It's a bit crazy that a 19-or 20-year-old summer intern earns more than the average monthly income of an American family," says Tahara. "Tahara was an intern for the big data start-up company Hadapt last summer and the year before that was in the mobile security start-up company Lookout Inc. Other benefits are also generous. Microsoft allows summer interns to enjoy concerts for free, and cloud storage provider Dropbox the parents of interns to San Francisco to learn about the company's future. Google offers interns the same benefits as employees, including massages and laundry services. The unexpected annoyance of younger interns sometimes brings unexpected trouble to the business. Airbnb recruiters accidentally discovered last year that interns Conrad Cremer (Conrad Kramer) are only 16 years old. "We have to apply for a work permit to comply with the law relating to work permits for employees under the age of 18 in California," Burn Koch Bern Coh, the Airbnb intern recruitment program. We have also been in touch with Kramer through a variety of channels. Not all companies like younger interns. Google requires interns to be at least freshmen and encourages them to complete their studies. Kyle Ewing, Google's global human resources director, Kerl Yu Yin that the company has found other ways to recruit staff. "Our interns have former professional ballet dancers and former professional baseball players," Ewing said of Google's intern.There are even people who can talk very fluently in Chinese. Some students have been working in the company's programming since they completed their first-year studies because they may be ready to become a technology intern. "The internship age does not dictate that Facebook discovered Michael Saman's talent last year because Sam developed a game called 4Snaps using Facebook's Parse developer tool." The current 4Snaps player is over 500,000. Sam taught herself mobile apps when she was 13, in part because it helped parents pay their bills in time. With 4Snaps downloads climbing last year and once becoming the most loaded crossword puzzle in Apple's App Store, Facebook's parse team contacted Sam and asked Sam to make a video of how to develop 4Snaps. Last September, Facebook played a video of Sam's production to all its staff, and Sam was also attracted to the intern recruiters. Miranda Kalinowski, head of Facebook's global recruiting business, said the company had "no Miranda Kalinovsky" on the age of interns, but usually recruited from freshman and college students. "We are always trying to find real top talent," she says. Sam, who is about to work in the parse team this summer, said he wasn't sure if he would go to college. He is adapting to life in Silicon Valley and has taken a picture with Apple CEO Tim Cook last month. "If Facebook gives me a full-time job, I'll accept it without hesitation because it's the dream I've been dreaming about," she said at the end. ”
