The challenge
Delivering a globally-consistent early-career programme across 4 continents for over 500 graduates with diverse educational backgrounds, preparing them for various technical roles.
Our solution
We designed a comprehensive programme featuring:
- Coding Primers and Digital Materials: Pre-programme resources for participants with limited software engineering experience.
- Role-Aligned Tracks: Custom tracks for full-stack developers, business analysts, and data engineers.
- High-Priority Topics: Covering financial markets, agile development, cloud engineering, API programming, and essential professional workplace skills including collaboration, creativity, and communication.
- Continued-Education Sessions: Ongoing support during the first 12 months in their new roles.
Now in its 14th year, the programme evolves with each iteration to include the latest tools, technologies, and practices used by our client to deliver world-class banking platforms.
Delivery
The hybrid programme combines virtual Zoom tutorials, self-directed study using up-to-date digital content, and team-based technical challenges, all centered on our client’s technology stack and banking use cases.
Results
Regular knowledge checks and one-on-one instructor sessions enabled participants to track their progress, ensuring they were desk-ready and could immediately contribute upon joining their teams.
Feedback
The programme’s scale continues to grow annually, supporting increasing numbers of technology and data engineering graduates. Participants can navigate complex engineering environments, deliver enterprise-quality code, and rely on a new network of peers and colleagues for support.
