1. What is Openfor.co/fellowship Community?
Openfor.co/fellowship is the International Remote Career, Entrepreneurship Development Community and part of the United States-based company Openfor.co Inc.
With the objectives to help young undergraduates and fresh graduates, who do not have any working experiences, we are implementing the remote internship and other career development training programs. We have provided career development training and internship opportunities to 96 youths from different countries with diverse backgrounds through intensive training and real-life remote working environments.
2. How did we start Openfor.co/fellowship?
Getting an internship or a working opportunity in an international working environment at a young age was one of the biggest desires of both of the founders Erdinc Ekinci and Yu Li Shein.
They always wanted to join a program that could cultivate an international working culture, where we could learn, get mentorship, and kickstart their career paths. They didn't get such opportunities when they were young. They want to give the opportunities to the youths that they did not have when they were young.
Besides that, many youths especially from developing countries have very little access to international programs, internships and job opportunities. Moreover, most of the jobs are demanding for people with working experiences.
Founders have been willing to give an internship or a working opportunity to the young fellows to fill the gaps. The opportunities can be both at Openfor.co or at other international companies.
All of these reasons encouraged them to create the Openfor.co/fellowship community for youths
