I first learned about the Quipu Graduate Programme on LinkedIn. After that, I checked the official website for more information. Applications weren’t open yet, so I waited, applied and I was lucky to be chosen to be part of this wonderful programme.
I was already familiar with Quipu from my previous job and the information I found online about the graduate programme was accurate. It detailed the programme’s structure, technologies, and mentorship opportunities, all of which matched my actual experience and aligned with my career goals.
I usually rely on online job boards and company career pages to find graduate programmes. LinkedIn was particularly helpful for discovering Quipu’s programme and connecting with recruiters.
I was thrilled to join the graduate programme at Quipu knowing about their strong reputation in software development and their commitment to innovation and professional growth. The chance to work with experienced professionals and be part of a dynamic team was a great prospect. The structured training and career development this programme offered were very appealing. I have always had an interest in business and finance and the fintech industry, which started many years ago when watching “The Wolf of Wall Street.” I have always been curious to learn more about how everything is aligned and seamlessly works together in the banking industry.
The programme has been very beneficial for my career development. It provided a solid foundation in software development practices and methodologies. I have gained valuable technical skills in various programming languages, frameworks, and tools. Moreover, I have developed strong problem-solving abilities and learned how to work effectively in a team. The hands-on projects and real-world applications have significantly enhanced my practical knowledge. I am especially grateful to my team, my mentor Dejan, and my manager Ivana for their support and guidance.
The programme has exceeded my expectations. I anticipated learning about software development, but the depth and breadth of the training surprised me. Mentorship from senior developers has been incredibly valuable, and the collaborative environment fostered a strong sense of teamwork. The opportunities for professional development and continuous learning have been excellent.
The mentorship provided by experienced developers has been a highlight of my experience. Their guidance has helped me navigate complex projects and develop my skills. The numerous learning opportunities, including workshops, seminars, and hands-on projects, have been instrumental in my professional growth.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the office. Meeting new people, bonding with colleagues, and engaging in face-to-face interactions enhanced teamwork and collaboration. While I prefer the office environment for being more stimulating and helpful for productivity and learning, as well as for getting to know more people, I appreciate having the flexibility to work from home occasionally.
The resources provided were more than sufficient to support my work and learning. The development tools, software, and access to knowledge databases were excellent. The support and mentorship I received were outstanding. My mentors were always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and offer constructive feedback, greatly facilitating my learning and growth.
I would definitely recommend this programme to a friend. The structured learning environment, hands-on experience, and mentorship provide an excellent foundation for a career in software development. The support from colleagues and the opportunities for professional growth make it a great place to start and develop one’s career.
