My experience as a Gazan girl getting into Silicon Valley companies

Hiii everyone, this is my first time posting here! I have read Hacker News sometimes but only thought about sharing my own post after seeing Manara's post (https://ift.tt/3uqZxu5 month. I asked them if I can share this here and they said it was a good idea. :) I’m a 19-year-old Gazan female who participated in Manara last year and got internships at Google and Repl.it. I’m so excited I will spend this summer at Google in Europe! I got lots of questions about my experience when people heard about it on Facebook so I wrote this blog post (https://ift.tt/3pONGm7) to let other young engineers in Palestine and the Middle East know how they can get into amazing companies like this too. If you are an engineer or student like me, read it and apply to Manara, they will help you so much!! Btw I have a few friends who just finished the Manara program and are looking for internships now so if you have opportunities make sure to talk to Manara (http://www.manara.tech). Ask them about Rula and Hend! :)))
