Training and development... A night and shining armer

In today's world it has become very challenging to get placement without having any experience or training. The first question the interviewer often ask the interviewee is 'Do you have any training or experience?' If not then it is highly likely that you will not be hired.

There is a high rate of unemployment in South Africa because of this situation. Which often leads to crime. Institutions should encourage training and development or should make it compulsory to any student doing their last year.

A student at the University of Johannesburg named Bongani Zwane establishes a company called ABZ Holdings which offer students, graduates and general workers training and development and give them working experiences. 

So far 8400 students including the former Miss South Africa Bakang,  have graduated under this company. I am an intern at this company working under the customer service division. 

It is an incredible opportunity since I am learning quite a lot and am able to meet new people on a daily basis who also share with me a piece of their knowledge.  As a public relations student I am being taught the theoretical part of public relations in class, luckily I am receiving all the practical training and experience I need at ABZ Holdings before I can face the world.

Election time is just around the corner.

so who will you vote? 
                                                                  

Since there has been claims of corruption within the government which route will you take?
Which party are you going to vote for South Africans; ANC, EFF or DA?
All i know is that our nation needs change, but not just any change... the kind of
change that will create opportunities  for the youth and  their future. Better schools, better 
hospitals, better roads, houses and service delivery, not empty promises.  

Do not  vote for someone just because they promised you an R.D.P house or because they gave you a kiss or just because they promised you a better job. Vote for someone that you know, will bring change to our nation. THE FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS.
