Amidst global layoffs and rising unemployment, Flutterwave has hired 85% of its 200 graduate trainees as full-time employees, after a 12-month-long paid traineeship. A year after Flutterwave launched its Graduate Trainee Program, the African fintech unicorn has hired about 85% of the 200 graduate trainees that participated in the inaugural cohort of the programme.

Flutterwave, the African fintech unicorn, has successfully transitioned 85% of its 200 graduate trainees from its Graduate Trainee Program into full-time employees. This initiative, launched in August 2022, provides recent graduates with paid 12-month traineeships aimed at building technical and soft skills. After completing this program, more than 170 of them have started their careers as Analysts and Engineer 1s, following Flutterwave's career progression framework. This move stands out as a positive effort amid rising unemployment rates, especially in the tech industry, and showcases the potential for similar initiatives to bridge the job gap.
