Kristaps Liepins's journey

Why did you start the traineeship?

I’ve always wanted to be in the IT industry but haven’t been given any opportunities due to the knowledge and experience I lack. So I took this Traineeship in order to help me excel in these areas and improve on what I am missing which in the end seemed to have been the right choice.

What did you enjoy most?

In my opinion, I loved the live labs that IT Career Switch offer which gives you hands on experience with what it will be like in a work type environment. These live labs have helped me gain tremendous knowledge in the areas I needed.

What's your current role like?

I love my role, even after learning everything at Career Switch, there is so much I’m learning and many friendly colleagues that push me to where I want to be.
