Yorb Interns to Employees
Terry Toms and Ari Hemmingsen both work full-time at Yorb, and both have arrived there the same way - from doing a Yorb internship during their Bachelor of ICT at UCOL.
“I had no prior experience in this field,” says Ari, who interned in 2020. “However, it was great to be fully exposed to it all, and to get to experience hands-on work at Yorb. Now, every day at work is different and I am constantly overcoming new challenges.”
For Terry, who was an intern in 2016, his role is now in Senior Support - and he finds himself offering guidance to the latest interns. “Over the years, Yorb has matured the intern structure a lot, giving interns more active work. I have watched them learn and develop their skills at a fast pace due to these changes and it is great to see these changes continually progress.”
Both Ari and Terry say they find the team so easy to approach, and they are always open to help.
“Ari and Terry are very valuable to us at Yorb. They turn up to work every day with a great attitude, and that is sometimes hard to find in the industry,” says Paula Hibbs, HR Coordinator at Yorb.
Yorb is pleased with the strong connection it has built with ICT students at UCOL, and they’re successfully turning interns into long-term employees.
