QuantifyYourFuture VIRTUAL INTERNSHIP – JANUARY 2023
QuantifyYourFuture is excited to invite you to our Virtual Internship in partnership with Absa, FirstRand, FNB and Nedbank – the opportunity of a lifetime!
Our Virtual Internship Programme will give you exposure to real life work experience – with a specific focus on new and emerging careers – in a virtual format. You will have the opportunity to develop the core skills needed in the world of work – what the World Economic Forum refer to as the 4 C’s:
• Critical Thinking
• Creativity
• Collaboration
• Communication
WHAT IS QuantifyYourFuture?
Launched in March 2019 by leading employers, and hosted by SAGEA, QuantifyYourFuture exists to promote Management, Quantitative, Computational and Data Science career paths. Our goal is to support universities in promoting these qualifications by showcasing degree options at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and, ultimately, the range of career opportunities available to graduates.
How will the virtual internship work?
With the COVID-19 Pandemic still ongoing, and learning from the enormous success of SAGEA’s VirtualGradExpo, our Virtual Internships offer the perfect opportunity for you to explore the world of Quants from the comfort of your couch, and gain invaluable experience while doing so!
The internship will run in January 2023, targeted at students in their 2nd year of a 3-year programme, or 3rd year of a 4-year programme. You will be introduced to the technical concepts of the discipline you’re studying or have an interest in pursuing.
QuantifyYourFuture classifies quantitative careers into five interest areas, namely Analyse, Construct, Innovate, Interrogate and Utilise, https://quantifyyourfuture.co.za/. With this in mind, we will be offering Quantitative/Data Science Internships and Data & Risk Analytics Internships, aligned with students who have an interest in analysing, constructing, innovating or interrogating business solutions.
CLOSING DATE: 14 October 2022
