In 2019, at Business Solutions d.o.o., we held an advanced two-week summer IT workshop. Participants got the opportunity to see what working on a real project was like and how they could apply their theoretical knowledge in practice.
At the heart of our efforts was promoting a welcoming environment for young people, that encourages and empowers them to achieve independence and provides them with a workspace, an opportunity and the support needed to actively integrate into society and the labour market. This led me to become a mentor in the Next Talent Hub project.
We received 40 applications, which was great, and from which we selected the eight most suitable candidates. Then we divided these talents into two groups that each operated as a company. They learnt about the entire process, from customer requirements and preparing a quote to the production and creation of two products.
Next Talent Hub is not just a workshop, but also a hub of creativity and learning, and a new way of recruiting, as we hired some of the participants after the project concluded.
