In a strategic move to tackle rising youth unemployment and equip young graduates with industry-relevant skills, iRecharge Tech Innovations has launched a Graduate Trainee Program aimed at fostering career growth and job opportunities in Nigeria’s tech sector.

iRecharge, a leading digital payment solutions provider, announced the initiative as part of its commitment to bridging the gap between academic learning and real-world industry experience.

The program is designed to provide fresh graduates with hands-on training, mentorship, and career development across various departments within the company.

Speaking at the launch, Tomi Araromi, Chief Executive Officer of iRecharge Tech Innovations, emphasised the company’s dedication to empowering young Nigerians.

“The youth are the heartbeat of innovation, and their dreams are crucial to the future of our economy. This Graduate Trainee Program is a step toward helping them realize those dreams while simultaneously addressing the high unemployment rate in the country,” Araromi stated.

The program will expose participants to practical experience in the fast-paced tech industry, allowing them to develop crucial problem-solving skills and gain insights into digital finance and payment systems. Upon successful completion, trainees will have the opportunity to transition into full-time roles within iRecharge.
