Work Experience at Voktis Learn, Grow, and Innovate
Supporting the Next Generation of IT Talent
Voktis empowers future IT talent by combining expert IT support with hands-on student mentorship and real-world experience.
Voktis has been operating for more than a decade, and it is serving its clients with high-quality IT support service. Whether it's managed IT support, IT consultancy or business IT support, we remain a trustworthy partner for our clients. Originally based in Greater Manchester, UK, Voktis has now expanded its operations on a global scale, adding UAE to the equation. From the beginning, our intention was to build an IT service company which is not only focused on generating money but also bringing impact changes to our society and widening the opportunity for the youth to upscale their IT skills.
That's why we believe "There is no I in our business."
Why Is Work Experience Important in the IT Sector?
The IT industry is the most dominant and needs faster adaptation. It is very common to introduce yourself with the latest technology or new versions of software or features. Without having prior knowledge of system upgrades or the background of any technology, it becomes impossible to perform in this industry. Clients demand knowledgeable people who can optimise their systems just by getting a brief introduction to the problem and, at the same time, provide a solution.
Moreover, different businesses face different IT issues, which may appear difficult for a new engineer to work on. So, having good work experience puts an IT professional way ahead of others. Experienced IT professionals have good demands in the IT companies; moreover, they secure close to one hundred per cent client satisfaction. The most important thing is they solve IT problems in a professional manner, so it seems like there is no worry for the customers. So, to be a professional IT expert, one must have relevant work experience in this field.
IT Industry Exposure that Students get at Voktis
Information about the IT Issues:
A student will have the opportunity to know what IT support people need the most. We have managed thousands of tickets and solved them over the period, which is a valuable asset for the students to study and get knowledge about solving tickets.
Get used to the daily workflow:
A student will get to know how we deal professionally with our clients. How to approach a real-world problem and how teamwork solves problems. This experience will not only boost their confidence but also will prepare them for the future challenge in the working environment.
Opportunity to connect with skilled professionals:
Definitely the best way to learn is from a professional. An experienced individual can easily answer your questions; they can guide you through the best way a student needs to explore.
Problem-solving opportunity:
Connecting with us allows students to solve real-life tech problems. They utilise their thoughts on how to solve the problem; this allows them to create an algorithm which may in the future help them develop any systems that will solve problems for thousands of people.
