In just one year, Kimani’s journey with Hopeworks has been nothing short of extraordinary. From joining us as a tech-savvy trainee interested in UX design to emerging as a training room intern, Kimani has exemplified dedication and passion.
Now, we're thrilled to share his latest accomplishments: Kimani has secured a full-time position with TD Bank, found stable housing, and taken the exciting leap to enroll in Camden County College!
"Hopeworks has truly changed my perspective and outlook on life. I joined the program looking to pursue new opportunities in tech and though it wasn't easy I completed the training and have been offered a full-time job! Hopeworks showed me that being career ready is more than just a stacked resume or solid interview skills, but taking each assignment one day one at a time and learning as you grow."
