Who is BeSquare for?

BeSquare is targeted at graduates who want to enhance their skill set and work experience before seeking permanent employment.

In today’s demanding economy amidst a global pandemic, it’s crucial for graduates to have the right skills to be able to adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the tech industry.

“We want to give graduates the opportunity to acquire the skills that will help them succeed as IT professionals,” says Shyamala Siva, Deriv’s Head of HR.

Trainees who perform exceptionally well throughout the programme will be offered permanent positions at Deriv.

The first course, Developing on AWS, will introduce participants to the AWS software development kit and demonstrate how to develop secure and scalable cloud applications. The second course, DevOps Engineering on AWS, will cover DevOps philosophies, practices, and tools to develop, deliver, and maintain high velocity applications and services on AWS.

Besides that, the BeSquare team will provide trainees with learning points on important soft skills as recommended by the Harvard Business Review.
