"Ad honoren" stands for no pay, free work. At least where I'm from ( Argentina ) there are several start up that hired junior profiles (w/o exp )( without pay of course ) and they simulate real work, with Agile meetings, team leader, slack channels, git, etc. This is my third project so far with them, I learned a lot to be honest, also they encourage to learn a new language, for example if you are front end, you to help at the back end also, if you like testing, or mobile, or devops, etc. nocountry.tech/
its in Spanish, sorry bout that. Maybe there si something similar in English.
Good luck!

The phrase in English (technically Latin) would be "pro bono" btw!
