Dubbed ‘Are you the right fit’, it sought to get the perspective of top tech employers’ requirements in the workplace.

The annual Moringa Career Fair 2022 featured over 750 Moringa graduates and students participating in two phases.

The first one, the pre-hackathon introduction and workshop, the ideation and selection phase, which was executed online, and the second, the prototype building and presentation phase, will run in person at the campus for one day.

“The Career fair, which kicks off with a strategic partnership with Little committing to create a minimum of 20 tech jobs for Moringa graduates this year, is an extension of our mission to build talent and opportunities through tech-based learning experiences. We aim to develop African tech talent and connect our students to purposeful and significant earning opportunities, whether full-time jobs, the gig economy or becoming entrepreneurs”, he added.
