CompSoc is the University of Canterbury Computer Society.

For two decades, we’ve been organizing academic and social events catering to software engineering and computer science students, but all degrees are welcome!

ASK JOE IF NEEDED

🤝 "Get to Know Us" is an opportunity to hear from a Jane Streeter from our Hong Kong office. This event complements our video series of the same name. Following an introduction to Jane Street, our opportunities, and our recruiting process, the conversation will be student-driven - so bring your questions! Join us after for an Estimathon® - an interactive, team-based contest that combines trivia, game theory and mathematical thinking!

If you are interested in learning more about working and interning at Jane Street, please join us. We hope to meet intellectually curious problem solvers - you don't need experience in finance to work at Jane Street.

🛍️ At Jane Street, we love food and swag! So you can expect there to be a snack and swag here too.

Please sign up here by Monday, 6 May if you're interested in attending. We will confirm attendees via email by Tuesday, 7 May.
