Graduates

It’s a whole new world when you leave University. You’ve earned your degree through hard work and determination, not to mention a few late nights spent at a computer. And, suddenly, the time is upon you when you have to take your next big step. This may be one of the biggest decisions you’ve had to make; your future depends on it so go ahead, ask yourself three very important questions:

• Do you want to work for an innovative, dynamic and wholly supportive company?
• Do you want someone who will foster your entrepreneurial spirit, give you the confidence to grow and believe in your abilities?
• Are you looking for rewards for all that hard work?

If you answered yes to these questions, read on!

By joining StarBase, you will learn, develop and be encouraged to grow. We have the highest levels of technological experience within our company and the opportunities are boundless. Our employees are rewarded every day working for StarBase and we’re not just talking about money, although it helps. We’re talking about experiences, sharing knowledge, a dramatic increase in learning whilst developing relationships.

Each year we recruit new Graduates who have a passion for learning and a will to succeed. We believe that we can offer you a structured career path that stands out in both its diversity and ongoing challenges with regular performance and career management reviews. No two people at StarBase will have had the same experiences. Developing your own core skills and capabilities allows you to take your career where you want it to go. We provide the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in testing projects and build a solid understanding of the IT and testing project lifecycle.

But what are we looking for?

Qualifications and Experience:

• Computer Science Degree
• Information Systems / Decision Sciences

We are seeking highly motivated individuals who meet the following criteria:

• Eagerness to contribute in a team-oriented environment
• Ability to work creatively and analytically in a problem-solving environment
• Desire to work in an information systems environment
• Prepared to travel
• Excellent leadership, communication (written and oral) and interpersonal skills

All of our Graduates receive comprehensive training covering business acumen, technical and professional skills development. You’ll also have opportunities to increase your functional skills and expertise in an area of specialisation. We offer a variety of formal and informal training programs at every level to help you acquire and build specialised skills faster. There is a good mix of both formal classroom learning coupled with interactive and on the job training, focusing on key aspects of testing such as the fundamentals and principles of testing, manual and automated testing techniques and technical training specifically using individual automated testing tools.

We provide the opportunity for achieving specialist qualifications in the form of both the industry recognised ISEB/ISTQB’s Foundation Certificate in Software Testing and the Mercury Certification in either LoadRunner, QTP, Quality Centre or WinRunner.

The variety of work we do, and the experience it offers, provide an unbeatable platform from which to build a successful career.
