Yayyyy!!!

HNG is here again, I've always wanted to join HNG internship but never got an opportunity to, so I start by thanking God for this glorious opportunity to be part of this internship, and here I'll be sharing with you 4 of my main reasons for joining this internship. Don't worry if you don't know what HNG internship is I'll explain as you read on.

ABOUT ME

Firstly let me start by introducing myself,I'm Promise Okafor a 200 level student of the university of Ibadan (UI), in the department of computer science,I'm a tech enthusiast, who loves software and design.

ABOUT HNG

Now moving on, HNG internship is a 8 - 9 weeks post-tranining program which covers a variety of tracks e.g frontend-development, backend-development, UI/UX, dev-ops etc using different languages and stacks, whereby you are given a task to complete within a certain deadline to advance to the next stage with about 10 stages total.Because of my love for design and user interfaces generally I enrolled in the frontend-development track.HNG internship is currently powered by Zuri team in collaboration with ingressive for good (i4g).

4 RESAONS I JOINED

1) To become an HNG finalist and get the heart throbbing HNG t-shirt😜
2)Advance my knowledge on front-end engineering😁
3)Learn to work with time and precisionπŸ‘£
4)Learn to co-exist with other people in the tech-world and work with a teamπŸ‘₯

Finally, I know I said 4 reasons but let me just add that being an hng finalist will look really cool on my resume.
