This hands-on approach will allow all participants to effectively develop their potential.

They will then attend the training program along with the company’s other special activities. The smart trainees will also receive a monthly salary during the training period. In addition, only 100 outstanding participants who are currently fourth-year university students will be selected to be “smart friends”. They will have to attend an intensive training course which will prepare them for their future telecommunications career.,” said Mr. Anat.
