Employer lists and descriptions
We provide links and descriptions of employers active in the develpoment sector. Where possible we have included direct links to their employment sites. If you have more than 3 years work experience and a post-graduate degree then you should try to get your CV to the human resources offices, requesting to be included in their consultant database. When they have projects that match your skills they will contact you. For people with less experience look for internships and entry level positions. Check the resources page and read more about development. There are a lot of employment options and you must understand the sector in depth to have clairvoyance in your decisions.

Young professionals programs

A great way to gain experience, or just get your foot in the door, is through interning - our internships page lists employers with official internship programs. Most employers will take interns even though they do not have an official internship program. You should use our Employers page above to contact any organisation of interest and ask them directly whether they have internships available.
