Year 12 Work Experience at Apple HQ
It has been a momentous experience for ten Year 12 students when they arrived at the Tech giant Apple HQ on September 23rd and 24th 2024. With them participating and learning, the girls were receptive and happily fascinated with the encoded software and of course were immediately engaged. Tasked to develop an app they took the designs they built in their designated groups on the first day and brought them to life with the help of Swift UI code. They received mentoring from members of the Apple team to guide them through and answer any questions. Overall, each had positive comments and interests were raised in pursuing a future in the field of Software Design X
Some of the feedback from the girls were expressed as follows:
“It’s been great … It made realise me how easy encoding was with little or no background.”
“I’ve never done coding before but this might be something on my list as a career”.
“I thought coding was way worse … that it was so hard. But they explained the process well”.
