C&W picks seven for graduate programme
THREE Jamaicans are among seven exceptional young professionals recruited by C&W Communications as a part of its competitive graduate programme.
The graduate programme targets recent university graduates with less than two years of experience and the potential for rapid advancement.
Over the course of 24 months, participants engage in a series of challenging projects, immersive learning workshops, and mentoring experiences that equip them for managerial positions.
This year’s cohort includes Odane Blidgen, Chelsey Cunningham, and Sherice Preddie from Jamaica. The others are Raven Massiah from Barbados, Jalen Monzac from St Kitts, Shania Alexander from Trinidad & Tobago, and Kaneisha Johnson from The Bahamas.
“We are thrilled to welcome these promising young people to the C&W family,” stated Dom Boon, C&W Communications vice-president of people.
“The graduate programme plays a pivotal role in our efforts to invest in and shape the next generation of leaders. These graduates represent the future architects of our company and the wider Caribbean region. I am especially pleased that we more than doubled the Caribbean representation this year going from two graduates in 2022 to seven this year, showcasing our commitment to nurturing regional talent.
“Each of these individuals brings a unique blend of skills, knowledge, and fresh perspectives to the company. This is a part of our strategy of fostering a strong pipeline of future leaders, poised to steer the region to unprecedented heights,” added Boon.
He pointed out that the programme reflects C&W Communications’ unwavering commitment to attracting, nurturing, and developing regional talent to drive its future leadership and growth.
The seven C&W graduates join six other graduates from C&W’s sister companies in Panama and Puerto Rico.
