If you just finished your studies and you’re looking for a challenging first job opportunity, Cardo Academy, our training program for recent graduates, might be just the right fit for you.
What is the CARDO Academy?
Cardo Academy is an initiative with the objective of helping recent graduates transition to the job market in Tirana. This is a chance to build your network, work with senior professionals and make an impact in the fintech world.
We know how difficult it can be to move your first steps in the job industry after years of studying. Oftentimes, after university and school, we still don’t feel prepared to enter the workforce. There can be a lot of confusion on how to find the first job. Especially when most companies require experienced graduates even for entry-level positions.
At Cardo AI, we want to make sure that all students have an opportunity to explore different career paths and experiment with what it is like to work in a company. We also want to guarantee a seamless transition into the job market, and that is why we decided to create our own training program.
