My name is Salome Ngoepe, and I am a passionate and driven IT graduate from theVaal University of Technology. I recently obtained my NQF Level 7 qualification on April 13, 2026, which marked the completion of a journey that required dedication, resilience, and a strong commitment to my future in technology. I am someone who believes in continuous growth, taking opportunities seriously, and turning challenges into steppingstones toward success.
Work Experience
*Although I am at the early stages of my professional career, I have already gained valuable exposure through my current role as a Systems Intern. This experience has allowed me to begin applying the theoretical knowledge I gained during my studies to real-world business environments. I am continuously learning, developing my technical abilities, and building confidence in a professional setting.
Why Diploma in IT
I chose to study Information Technology because I have always been fascinated by how systems and technology can be used to solve real-life problems and improve efficiency in organizations. IT is a dynamic and ever-growing field, and I saw it as an opportunity to build a career that is both impactful and future focused. I wanted to be part of the digital transformation and contribute to innovative solutions that make a difference.
Internship
My journey into the professional world is a story of opportunity meeting preparation. I was fortunate to be connected with WG House (Pty) , an organization that played a significant role in opening doors for me. Through their support, I secured an interview in March 2026, and shortly after, I was offered an internship. I officially started working in April 2026.
I truly believe that if it wasn’t for WG House Pty, I would not be where I am today. They provided me with an opportunity that changed the direction of my life, and I am incredibly grateful for their role in my growth and success.
Company
I am currently working at Genric Insurance as a Systems Intern. Genric Insurance is a reputable company in the insurance industry, known for its innovative approach and commitment to excellence. Being part of this organization has given me valuable insight into how technology supports business operations in a real corporate environment.
I am gaining hands-on experience, learning from industry professionals, and developing practical skills that will shape my future career. This opportunity has not only allowed me to grow professionally but has also strengthened my confidence and ambition.
