NTT

Andre, Cyber Security

Something I’ve taken away from this experience is the level of care and effort that goes into the graduate program and beyond at NTT. Positive outcomes are directed from positive experiences and the team I get to work with every day is always supportive of my learning endeavors and project work undertaken. 

Alexander, Project Services

When starting out as a graduate at NTT, people don't expect you to be an expert in your field, although of course a general understanding of a large range of technologies and applications provides a solid foundation for any on-the-job learning. NTT has allowed me to jump in the deep end, whilst providing all of the support I need to thrive within the rapidly growing IT landscape.

Overcoming those first day nerves!

I went through a whirlwind of emotions on my first day. Nervous, scared, and excited. Yet it all immediately dissipated when I met with my manager, got introduced to my team and my ‘buddy’. Throughout the day, I got to have a 1-on-1 chat with each member of my team and I felt immediately welcomed into the strong community at NTT.

I met so many new people throughout the Queensland branch within my first month, and each one of them tried to check-in and see how I was adjusting to the new workspace. 

Max, Digital Workplace

In year 1 of my program I’ve enjoyed first-hand the experience of how NTT can make a real difference for its clients. When I’m on site and explain to end-users the reason for the project and why I’m there, I often hear comments such as "Oh that will help us a lot", which assures me that the work I’m doing actually has an impact that will benefit the client. 

Although much of my time at NTT has been virtual due to COVID-19, I still feel like I’ve had many opportunities to connect and bond with my team as though we are in person. This year the office has opened up and it’s been great to meet with my clients and colleagues face-to-face. I’m also fortunate that NTT provides me with the option of working closely with my manager, team and clients to arrange flexibility around team days in the office, onsite with clients and from home, which is great for work-life balance. 

Krystal, Cyber Security

I first interacted with NTT as part of their 2021 Internship intake, which provided me with an invaluable opportunity to experience first-hand what the culture of NTT is like. It also provided me with the opportunity of speaking with a large range of people with differing experiences and in varying roles – something that I wouldn’t otherwise been able to so easily at the start of my career. Through this I went on to join NTT in their graduate intake in July 2021, starting out in the Professional Services team for Security in Melbourne.

Some Graduate Pointers:

It is important to remember that as a new comer into the industry, you have the fresh ideas and have studied the latest industry trends and technology. NTT openly embraces the value of a new perspective, which is what you can bring along with your foundational knowledge.

Don’t be afraid to have an opinion.
Your ideas need to be heard! Challenging the norm is what drives innovation. NTT is always looking to stay in-front of the curve.

Embrace change.
Technology is always evolving, and as a consultant you'll gain exposure with many different industries. Utilise NTT’s learning culture to continue to upskill and enjoy the diversity of experiences when working with clients. That is arguably the most interesting and rewarding part of the job!
