My YEAR UP experience| Going to College || Paid Internships

Greetings to you all. Welcome to my safe space, on this video and many more to come I will be sharing my experience, in the year up program. As I embark on this journey which allows my a chance to go to collage and also earn a internship, through year up. I am a South African born and raised in Africa. Now based in America, watch and grow with me as I find and expand my place in the States. In this video I will give you a break down of The Year Up program. From the reqirements of year up to the opportunity year up brings to young adults.

Prepare for Your interview, have an idea what You want to say and speak confidently. Treat it like a job interview, take it seriously but don’t be nervous. Have all of Your documents in order with the expectation that You will be accepted, onboarding moves quickly and You only have 1 week to get everything in order otherwise You lose Your spot.
