Why did you start the Traineeship?

I enjoyed the whole process of learning, gaining knowledge, developing my skills because I knew that I am doing something that will pay off in the future. There was huge support from my tutor who helped me to get on track and who motivated me.

I really like and enjoy my current role. I am part of a team that is implementing Microsoft unified communications solutions for small to huge businesses. There is a great progression possibility as well. I was provided with a company car, laptop, and smartphone.
