ALX launches Employer Partnerships for companies to gain access to their pool of talent

ALX launches ALX Employer Partner allowing employers gain access to their pool of talent

ALX Launchpad, a full-time, six-month leadership development program that works towards preparing high-potential recent university graduates with critical 21st-century skills that make them highly employable has created ALX Employer Partner, a platform that allows you as an employer to gain access to ALX’s pool of talent of about 110 work-ready graduates.

ALX which is part of African Leadership Group has 15 years of experience in developing top young talent for employers like IBM, GE, Bain, McKinsey, Google, Facebook, L’Oreal, Coca-Cola, Standard Bank, Goldman Sachs, PWC, Cellulant, Thompson Reuters and many others.

In the last 2 years alone, African Leadership Group has placed over 920 interns with top employers. Through a  survey carried by the team, ALX says that 90% of managers rated the talent’s performance as 4/5 or 5/5. 97% of managers also agreed to hire other interns from them.

Through this, ALX is now using this expertise to:

1.  Find Kenya’s top young talent
2.  Give them the skills and mindsets employers look for
3.  Match them to Kenya’s top employers

Having launched in Nairobi late last year and setting their office at Nairobi Garage, Kilimani, ALX has selected Kenya’s top young graduate talent and then further developed them into work-ready self-starters who can add value to any company from Day one.

The move by ALX comes at a time when statistics from Kenya National Bureau of Statistics shows that as of 2018, seven million Kenyans remained unemployed despite being qualified.

Through this new programme ALX would like to give employers access to this high potential talent pool and partner with them to hire seamlessly. ALX allows companies to partner with them through Employer Partnerships.

To join or learn more about Employer Partnership interested parties can reach out to the ALX team via partnerships_nbo@alx.app.

Meanwhile, ALX will also be hosting a Career Fair at the end of March giving employers an opportunity to engage with ALX team.
