How to find out what Google knows about you

Google has also released a schedule of they visit to the Institute of Business Administration (IBA) being the first varsity they will visit on August 30. The tour will end on 9th September after visiting the University of Engineering & Technology (UET), Lahore. During the 11-day trip, Google will visit nine universities across the country.

Google’s new smartphone could be a game changer

The event would prove helpful for those who are interested in making a career in web designing and app developing.

This isn't to help Pakistani students get jobs or anything. This is more to introduce people to Google and Android based platforms to gain more business from them :rofl:. Google or any other company doesn't send two "Managers" to a huge country. They send a barrage of SVP's and even their C level executives. They do majority of their hiring from India so I can't see that changing. Pakistan needs to build her place in IT and the leadership (both business and government) need to push out reforms focused on bringing IT/BPO work to Pakistan. If that starts, one day, Google's real teams will come to Pakistan for recruiting.

Only those Multi-National companies that have presence in Pakistan recruit from Pakistan.

Hi dear @Pakistanisage
I was talking more about research jobs. I mean do these MNCs that you just mentioned go to pakistani universities for R&D profile jobs?


There is not much in terms of R&D from MNCs , but some activity is generated by overseas Pakistanis who are collaborating with Pakistani Universities to create products that their overseas companies are manufacturing and marketing.
