"Our partnership with The Coders Guild has revolutionised our approach to talent development, allowing us to fast-track highly capable individuals into our DevOps teams."
Historically, Mastek recruited exclusively from Russell Group universities. Sonia Gandhi, Head of CSR, sought to utilise Mastek’s substantial levy fund to pioneer a fast-track apprenticeship programme aimed at developing DevOps talent.
:In collaboration with Mastek’s DevOps Learning and Development team, we engineered a customised training plan tailored to the systems, frameworks, languages, and tools their teams utilise. We incorporated specific learning paths for bootcamp participants to equip them with the skills needed to excel from day one. Our partnership with local organisation Generation produced candidates that perfectly matched Mastek's requirements.
We successfully launched a Level 4 DevOps apprenticeship to be completed in just 13 months—nearly halving the typical 24-month timeframe.
By joining forces with The Coders Guild, Mastek has not only streamlined their talent acquisition but has also enriched their workforce with skilled and enthusiastic individuals ready to drive innovation.
