After receiving well over 150 applications for the programme here are our 4 amazing apprentices who are starting their software career journey. A lot goes into developing our successful apprenticeship programs. Connecting with students at universities and sharing our opportunity is a large part of that.
One of the most powerful part of these career days, is seeing apprentices from previous years volunteering their time to share their stories with students and inspiring them to apply and change arc of their careers. Spent a great morning with the students and faculty at Varsity College Durban North, explaining the benefits and impact of our Apprenticeship program.
One of our current Pivot18 apprentices, Brandon, joined us helping explain how the program works and how he has found it helped him so far. There was lots of interest and many diverse questions. Employability based on experience is a hot topic and was felt keenly by the students we talked to. We were very encouraged by the openness and enthusiasm. We received a number of applications from students and have a follow up or two planned with staff. Congratulations to Lucie Bowyer and her team for hosting a well supported and well organised career fair.
