At last, OpenAI has begun hiring on college campuses, with UC Berkeley being the first. OpenAI’s Andrew Peng wrote a post on X about their first-ever campus recruitment event from the Wozniak Lounge on the UC Berkeley campus.
Additionally, OpenAI has launched its Emerging Talent Tech Community, which allows recent graduates to join the OpenAI community. When individuals become part of the Open AI Tech community, they will receive exclusive information about the most recent developments in technical positions and upcoming special events in their area.
It’s important to remember that becoming a member of the OpenAI talent community does not constitute an application. Eligible candidates still need to apply for roles to be considered.
