The MTN CA Programme offered me the opportunity to have the most memorable and fulfilling 3 years of articles. From the rotations to the culture of the company. The 3 years at MTN as a CA trainee afforded me the opportunity to know myself better and uncover things about myself that I now cherish and consider to strengths.The ball is always in your court on what you experience and learn- no two trainees had the same rotations or experiences, you are encouraged to be yourself. I was fortunate to go on a rotation in MTN Uganda for 3 months which the company afforded me.Whether in MTN SA; MTN Group or MTN Uganda, one thing rings true- the culture of MTN is one of community and opportunity. If I had to choose my training office again- I would definitely choose MTN again.

The MTN CA Programme provided me the opportunity to gain an extensive view of the ICT industry by rotations through different business units. This has enabled me to deepen my learning and broaden my perspective. I made strong networks and interacted with diverse colleagues forging relationships along the way. The programme has provided me with the necessary soft skills and training to complete my Articles and Board Exams During the CA Programme I completed a rotation in Dubai with MTN GlobalConnect. This gave me valuable insight to the international wholesale business.

The MTN CA programme is a rotation-based programme, I have developed the ability to quickly learn and adapt to different teams. This has allowed me to be able to swiftly add value in my current role. Exposure to the many different functions within MTN went a long way towards helping me decide on a career path. I was able to be involved in many different work streams at a very senior level.Completing articles at MTN has given me a unique set of skills, that set me apart from other CA’s, largely because telco is a very singular and relevant industry. The learning curve is steep at times built well worth it in the end.
