seattle tech job help

[emyinpink]

I'm helping out a good friend.

She's currently interning for a big tech company in the area, but is looking for other options. She has one more year of school (ivy league), major is politics, but has certificates in applications of computing as well as engineering and management systems (she's taken cs courses as well).

She's interested in the program manager role at a seattle company (not opposed to bay area, but would prefer seattle). I'm reaching out to my networks, but does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

assuming she's already at our company? Amazon, starbucks, nordstroms, Costco, AT&T, Expedia are the ones I can think of off hand.

T Mobile has a pretty big campus here too

sweet, I'd thought of Amazon (I do know someone there) and Expedia, but not Starbucks, nordies, or costco. I'll also have her look into AT&T/T-mobile.

larz, you got a pm.
