Graduate Programme Benefits

Why choose Electrum?

Mentorship

You are assigned a dedicated mentor to guide you through your projects and the Electrum journey as a whole. These mentors set aside most of their time to make sure that you are well set up. You essentially receive one-on-one career coaching every day.

Support system

When you join our programmes at Electrum, you start as a group. Not everyone is going to just cruise through the projects, but the fact that you are in a group gives you a support system that allows you to learn from each other’s strengths.

Working on real projects

We believe the best way to learn is to spend time tackling real problems. All the interns and grads that join us at Electrum get the chance to work on real projects and interact directly with customers.

Full project lifecycle

Experience Electrum’s culture

Team building, socials and events are organised by the company to help you get to know one another, bond as a group, have fun and build trust.

Testimonials

The word from graduates

“I find it super challenging to start somewhere new. Day #1 comes with the anxieties of being plunged into a world of new people and unknown expectations. Luckily, having a programme that guides your first weeks at Electrum made this process a whole lot easier. It gave me a chance to move into the new role in my own time and with a level of trust I wasn’t expecting. I really grew alongside my fellow grads, both in my dev ability and confidence! Not to mention the epic times we had while doing so.”

“The grad programme not only set me up with the tools to perform technically, but it also gave me the self-confidence to feel like I had something I could contribute to my team! I think that sense of self-assurance came from having a great mentor and from being included in the full software development process right from the beginning.”

“The grad programme is like a crash course for all things Electrum. Firstly, it’s filled with lots of amazing workshops that give you a great idea of the work, the people and the amazing company culture. The grad project is also an amazing way to learn about the code base. All in all, I absolutely loved the grad programme and think that it was incredibly well thought out and run!”

“Starting off my journey at Electrum with the structure of the graduate programme helped me out immensely when it came to adjusting to a huge and unfamiliar codebase and industry. I initially had no idea of the complexities behind payments architectures but ended the programme being comfortable throwing all sorts of terminology around. The trust and respect shown by everyone at Electrum was also a big boon to feeling like it was a place I could fit in and grow myself and my skills, and I’ve never looked back!”
