Our Talent Programs
CTRL+ Future Project
In cooperation with Microsoft Turkiye and Koç Holding, we are launching our CTRL+ Future project to support young talents from universities who want to work in the field of information technologies on their way to their career. With our software and career development program CTRL+Future, we aim to provide employment opportunities not only for our company but also to contribute to the growing digital economy of our country. In our program, which we carry out without compromising our principles of diversity and inclusiveness, 30 recent graduates and university seniors completed their internships in the field of Digital Products and Services at Ford Otosan. Our program will continue on the way of their career with new talents.
INNOVOLT: Engineering Challenge Program
Innovolt Engineering Challenge Program is our case analysis competition where they discover Ford Otosan's culture, values, innovative solutions that will move the world, technology and the potential of our student friends and go deeper into engineering. In our events, where small groups usually compete with each other and we host different teams in each event, our participating student friends not only solve the case given to them, but also receive mentoring support from our Ford Otosan experts and have the opportunity to get to know our teams closely.
In each event, we come together with our teams responsible for different business processes at Ford Otosan and design a day where our student friends will analyze cases. In this way, our participant friends have the opportunity to discover our company's work culture, values and working environment, and gain knowledge and experience on the way to their career. Our Innovolt Engineering Challenge Program, where we presented awards to our first three groups, will continue with our new cases that are both enjoyable and instructive in the areas of expertise of our different teams.
