Graduate Training Scheme 2010 / 2011
In October 2010 we undertook a comprehensive recruitment process to select high calibre graduates that would give our business a competitive advantage in the aftermath of the recession and help the company achieve its ambitious growth plans for 2011 and beyond.
We launched our first graduate training scheme a month later, with five enthusiastic and ambitious graduates welcomed into the product management, marketing, trade sales, technical support and commercial teams at our Harrogate Office.
The graduates received intensive training, development and support throughout the scheme and have had the opportunity to work with some of the world's leading electronic brands such as LG and Sony and leading retailers such as Amazon and Currys / PC World.
Here is what they had to say about their experiences...
The Graduate Scheme has provided an excellent grounding in the way a forward looking IT Distribution company operates. The vital building and maintaining of relationships internally as well as with vendors and customers and the understanding of channel management and development were key features. The scheme has laid solid foundations from which I feel able to continue my development and grow a career in the IT industry.
-Martin, Product Management
The Graduate Scheme has been a very interesting and challenging experience and everyone has made me feel very much a part of team CCI. Not being a particularly tech savvy person to begin with, it was a steep learning curve, but I have received a lot of training and support along the way. My knowledge of the company as well as the IT distribution channel and the technologies we feed into it is continually being enhanced. I feel I have a lot of room to grow in my role and look forward to developing a strong and rewarding career at CCI.- Anita, Marketing
Joining CCI Distribution on the Graduate Scheme was the best career decision made after completing my studies at University. CCI Distribution has not only given me full support and guidance in the IT industry but a career path that I can successively progress in. I am pleased to be part of CCI Distribution and to be working for not just a leading UK IT Distributor but the UK's no.1 Value-Added Distributor, making CCI different from the Competition.
- Aman, Trade Sales
Working at CCI has been a fantastic experience, I have learned more in the last six months than I did in four years at University. Working in the fast paced IT world provides a different challenge everyday but with the support of the Graduate Scheme I have been able to achieve my goals. Working at CCI has given me a great start in the IT industry and I am looking forward to growing with the company.
- Mike, Technical Support
My experience of the Graduate scheme includes the full backing and support of my team and beyond. Everyone at CCI is expected to pull their weight, and being a graduate is no exception. I have learnt the importance of working efficiently, effectively and accurately. The Graduate Scheme has been both challenging and rewarding and I am grateful for the chance to prove myself in an ever-changing industry.
- James, Purchasing
We are thrilled to have these bright individuals in our company and hope they will build strong careers at CCI, helping us fulfil our aim of being the UK's leading independent IT distributor.
