Local Brand X and Yannick start the training year 2021

Since the founding of Local Brand X, we have attached great importance not only to employing qualified employees and welcoming them to the team, but also to train them ourselves. As an IHK-certified training company, we started a new training year on August 1st and would like to welcome Yannick to our team.

Training as an IT specialist in application development

Over the next three years, Yannick will be trained as an IT specialist in application development and will actively support us in the further development of our Local Marketing Platform. By working directly on the system, we not only want to impart theoretical knowledge, but also practical experience and work together on specific customer solutions.

Yannick, welcome to the team! Why don't you tell us why you decided to train as an IT specialist?

I wanted to do something where I could be productive myself and thought about what would go well there. Then I started to dig into the matter and realized that I enjoy it. I kept thinking from small mini-pages to tutorials and got information from different sites. The more I knew, the more interesting I found it. And in combination with the possibility that you can create something yourself, I noticed that this is the path I want to take.

After your first few weeks at Local Brand X, what's your first impression?

I think the mood at Local Brand X is calm and productive. Sometimes it gets louder for a moment, but that loosens up and means that it is emotional. Basically, however, calm, very independent and demanding and encouraging in combination.

What are you most looking forward to in your apprenticeship?

Most of all, I'm looking forward to getting better and being able to direct my work a bit. I'm also looking forward to feeling like I know what's going to happen in the next step. A lot of things are still very new and I don't have this certainty yet, but the more you do that, the more you can try out different directions. I look forward to this freedom and hope that it will come about.

We hope so too and wish you a good start to your apprenticeship and a nice and educational time at Local Brand X.
