Hi There.
A little backstory, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do career wise, so I chose to self-study some programming, dived head first into Java and got a certification, and started applying, then came across MIP.
MIP is a Full stack solutions company that powers the backend of major Insurance companies: Sanlam, Legalwise, Hollard, Talksure and many more. With an employment of about 500+ people, MIP is growing every year.
They require prospective candidates that are natural problem solvers - they conduct 3 tests to filter the prospects out. After which candidates are then slotted into a paid internship that lasts 3 months. If you are then good enough, you will be given a full time position at the company.
If you are interested, MIP Holdings | Leading Software Engineering Company in South Africa | Internship you can start the first test here. Please contact me if you do make it or have any questions. PS their offices are in Johannesburg or Cape Town but they do work remotely* however you will have to make your way to JHB for the internship for the first 2 Weeks (they will fund your accommodation and flights) However for the 3rd Test, It can only be done in Johannesburg (for now) and thus you will need to fund your own transport and accommodation for that (working with management to get them to potentially fund this back if you make it).
*Update - for the 6 months of the internship (3 months during and 3 months after) you will have to come into either the Joburg or Cape Town office full-time.
***UPDATE - next internship class starts in April is now FULL - much smaller class. (Not sure exactly when the next one will be, estimated August / September)
