Selection process for Academy 2013, how was it?

To start with we have to admit that the competition for Academy 2013 was really large. About 300 students took the qualifying test and more than 55 were interviewed. More than 60 % of the company took part in the whole process and even more employees of Binary Studio are going to be involved into the project later on delivering lectures and couching our young talents. After one and a half months of preparation for actual start of the Academy 2013, we made up lists of those, who passed screen tests and were successfully interviewed by our technical specialists and an HR Specialist. Thus we have 5 groups (2 for .Net, 2 for PHP and 1 for C++) with 27 students who are lucky enough to spend 2 summer months studying at Binary Studio under careful guidance of our experienced programmers. .Net group is divided into 2 subgroups 6 students in each the same as PHP group. It was PHP group which we complete the last because of the additional selection test which unlike the planned one took place in the office of Binary Studio. We are all excited and ready to launch the biggest Academy in the history of Binary Studio on July 1st!
