Learnership Supervisor
Started as Learner • 2020
"From general worker to Learnership Supervisor - when I joined SpecCon in 2020 as a learnership student, I had no idea this would be the beginning of a life-changing journey. The company saw potential in me even when I didn't see it myself."
Software Developer
Started as Learner • 2023
My journey at SpecCon began with an End User Computing Learnership in March 2023, where I was determined to excel and stand out. After completing my learnership early, I was recommended for a project in the content department, which led to becoming an AI Assistant in August 2023, creating TAP (The Accelerator Programme) course videos. My dedication was noticed by the marketing department, where I became the Senior Graphic Designer for 1.5 years, handling designs for all subsidiaries. During this time, I also configured our recruitment system and built the typing test for TAP, which highlighted my abilities and led to my promotion to the Development team as a Software Developer, where I currently work. To me, SpecCon is more than a workplace—it is a family that values my contributions over years of experience or qualifications, giving me the chance to grow, prove myself, and do the work I love at the highest level. They are supportive of growth and we all work together and don't stagnate, we accept and embrace change. Read More
