Frequently Asked Questions
What is the application process like?
First, you must choose your track and apply here on the ReadyforWork website.
You are advised to set a block of time for the assessment,
which takes about 60 minutes. We will invite you for an onboarding
interview if you pass the summative assessment. If you live in Ghana,
that'll be a face-to-face interview. If you live outside of Ghana, you
can join via Zoom. After the interview, you will receive our final selection decision.
If I'm selected, what should I expect?
Being selected to join ReadyforWork means you will be
solving real business challenges. The program is intensive,
so you need to plan to commit at least 15 hours weekly to your
coursework. You will also need a laptop and stable internet.
However, you can always come to our campus and learn from the digital classroom.
If I'm not selected, can I reapply in the future?
Yes, you can definitely reapply. We review applications
for candidates' suitability for our program, so we often accept
<1% of applicants per cohort.
How long does the ReadyforWork Career Accelerator last?
Cumulatively, the RFWCA program lasts for six weeks. After the six weeks of intensive career coaching bootcamp,
we open up the platform for our employer partners to connect with leaders that meet their criteria for jobs,
internships, contract gigs, etc.
Will I get a job after participating in the ReadyforWork Career Accelerator?
We partner with corporates and high-growth startups to curate the RFW accelerator.
After the six-week intensive bootcamp, our industry partners provide RFW leaders
with paid internship,job or apprentice opportunities. While we provide these opportunities
to all ReadyforWork leaders, we can not guarantee who gets a slot, as the program is
competitive and merit-based.
How much does the ReadyforWork Career Accelerator program cost?
The total cost of participating in the RFWCA is ¢2,500.
This fee is payable upon securing a job placement. Even at that, we also
have payment plans to ensure that reimbursement is not a burden on your earning.
If a candidate does not secure a job interview within six months of
graduating from RFW, then it's free for life.
Who can apply to participate in the ReadyforWork Career Accelerator?
The program is open to high potential University graduates, entry-level job seekers,
early-stage career professionals, and folks looking to either change jobs or re-enter
the workforce. If you are still in school and wish to join ReadyforWork, you must
already be at the tail end of your degree course and available to commit to the program.
Will I get a certificate after the program?
Most definitely! Leaders that finish the program successfully will receive a
certificate of completion and a complementary graphic resume.
It is important to note that leaders could be expelled if they breach the RFW Code of
Conduct or Privacy Policy. Please only apply if you see the program’s
value and are ready to abide by our simple policies.
