Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>Lonestar Cell MTN\u2019s Y\u2019ello Scholars Internship and Graduate Trainee programs application process is now open.<\/p>\n

According to a release from the company, the Y\u2019ello Scholars\u2019 Internship Program offers university sophomores and juniors who are 18 \u2013 25 years old the chance to demonstrate their abilities on cross functional and interdepartmental projects.<\/p>\n

Graduating senior university students and recent graduates who have been out of university for no more than a year, are eligible for the Y\u2019ello Scholars Graduate Trainee Program which runs for about 1 and a half years (12\u201318 months).<\/p>\n

Lonestar Cell MTN\u2019s Head of Human Resources, Johnett Horace stated: \u201cThe Y\u2019ello Scholars program began in 2019 as part of the company\u2019s corporate social responsibility to give back to young Liberians through capacity building and on the job training.\u201d<\/p>\n

Veldis Markor, one of the first Y\u2019ello Scholars from the 2019 edition, began his journey with Lonestar Cell MTN as a Graduate Trainee where he worked in the Enterprise Business, Information Technology and Sales and Distribution units.<\/p>\n

Based on his performance in the Graduate Trainees Program, Mr. Markor was nominated by HR to participate in the MTN Global Graduates program administered from South Africa where he also performed excellently.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the program I was able to expand my network with young people in South Africa, Estwatini, Ghana, Cameroon, South Sudan, Guinea, Guinea Bissau and Rwanda. The materials and training we received helped to mold us into well-rounded young people ready to transition into future executives or CEOs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Mr. Makor now works at Lonestar Cell MTN as a Revenue Assurance Analyst and encourages university students to apply.<\/p>\n

Bendia Wesseh, a 2020 graduate of the Y\u2019ello Scholars\u2019 Graduate Trainee Program, is now employed with Lonestar Cell MTN\u2019s Marketing Department. As a former Y\u2019ello Scholar, Ms. Wesseh said she has grown and learned so much.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy technical and interpersonal skills are way better than two years ago. This program opens your mind to new and diverse things, it gives you a broader perspective on life and career. Lastly it creates opportunities for young people to develop as they transition into career men and women,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Applicants for both Graduate Trainee and Internship programs must be 18 to 25 years old at the time of application submission, computer literate, a Liberian citizen, and must have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or above.<\/p>\n

Ms. Horace added, \u201cWith these programs, we are developing the next generation of young Liberian leaders, particularly in the field of telecommunications and technology. This opportunity produces well-equipped, job-ready leaders prepared for careers within Lonestar Cell MTN and beyond. \u201cWe are committed to transforming the lives of young people in Liberia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liberia\u2019s leading telecommunications company also encourages young women to apply. \u201cThey too, can make a significant contribution to Lonestar Cell MTN,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
