Training & Personal Development at FNZ

The formal training 'bootcamp' was really good at times and felt disorganized at other times. All the difficulties we faced could have been easily avoided from a little more preparation and moderation.

The training sessions themselves are generally pretty good. Just wish there were more of them for specific niche things (And they probably exist somewhere but they can be hard to find).

I think as graduates we got really good training. It's 1 year training which involves a lot of different area of the business. I personally think it's really good, and I can see that they take training(especially for graduates) seriously

The training provided us the basic knowledge with the platform we are currently using at work, that really help me as I start in the project.

Test design and Jira and basic finance.

Slight misalignment of expectations among trainers, but the program is structured really well.

Fnz's academy is a great place to learn and gain knowledge. Skills picked: - a lot of information about finance/investment/banking - software testing - SQL

It's got a lot better since I started. At first it was very 'learn on the go', which worked okay but there were a lot of gaps in my knowledge as a result. However now they've got a more formal training program that seems a lot more thorough, and also it's very easy to get help from other people in the office for things we didn't receive training on. I've gone from never using SQL to being very confident in my skills using it. I also had next to no dev experience before starting and now I'm fairly confident fixing defects

There is some very good training. In fact, most of it is really good. There have been a few trainings, however, that have been under supported.

Internal academy that has really developed over the past year. So while it wasn't the best when I started it has grown from that and will be very effective now

The grad program is new and super helpful and the training is improving all the time. By the time you start it'll be great :)

Formal training has been a bit of a work in progress, given recent reforms to the grad program. Not sure I can say anything of value on that without knowing what's planned for upcoming cohorts. In terms of informal training, excellent, you've got some great support networks coming into the job and by coming in as a cohort all at once, grads can provide each other a lot of support.

It has been almost entirely "on the job" training. If there was a structured course with dedicated teachers you could easily learn everything I have learnt within a couple of months.

4 weeks bootcamp training before officailly starting in real projects.

Not enough training available within projects. Makes it difficult to get started even with people around to ask.
