Getting an IT placement to fulfill your SIWES requirements in school can be quite tasking. Industrial Training is a great opportunity for students to get hands-on industrial experience related to their course of study.
Majority of students find it very difficult during their industrial training, this is because of non-availability and also because at times students do not have the necessary experience to go about the search. Below are four ways you can increase your chances of success:
1. Start early
Some students love to wait till the time to begin is there, before starting their search. This is wrong. Those that easily get are those who have started submitting their letters to various firms, well in advance. Therefore start early to inform those around you and submit your letters requesting for industrial training well in advance.
2. Submit as many IT Letters as possible
Get enough SIWES / IT letters signed by your school’s SIWES coordinator from your school and submit to as many related firms as you can. This will help you have as many chances as possible.
3. Go to related firms
When you are searching for IT space, it is vital that you go to firms or companies closely related to your course of study. Most students focus all their efforts on oil and gas companies, ignoring other companies that they could learn very much from. This is wrong. Focus your attention on companies that are interested in your area of study and you will secure a place more easily.
