Microsoft Virtual Work Experience


  • Kinsale Community School Ballinacubby Kinsale, County Cork Ireland (map)

During the week, students working in pairs will do the job of a Product Manager. 

 Students will design a mobile app (of their choice), produce storyboards for the user experience, research the competition, and make a pitch for their app at the end of the week.  A combination of presentations and hands-on mentoring in small teams will be provided by Microsoft product managers.  The Microsoft culture is one that focuses as much on how you help others do great work, as it does on the quality of individual work – so the week will provide a supportive atmosphere that encourages students to share ideas and help other teams refine their ideas too.

 The product managers who’ll assist are part of teams that build services which are used by 100s of millions of people - we’ll close the week with a presentation of what it means to be a graduate product manager at Microsoft Ireland.
