This is no longer a matter of course, especially in view of the current challenges that companies are facing due to the pandemic. Software manufacturer aagon, on the other hand, is sticking to this principle and offering three different career options even in this situation.

With Thorsten Kontorzik and Mathias Tillmann, the young people have two experienced, long-standing training managers at their side. Around ten young men and women complete their training at the IT company in Soest at the same time. After successfully completing their training, they can usually look forward to an offer of employment.

It is not for nothing that aagon repeatedly receives very good ratings on the online employer rating portal kununu and has even been named \"top company\". <\/p>\n<p>Wilko Frenzel, Managing Partner, who is also responsible for personnel matters: \"Even now, we are standing by our corporate responsibility and sticking to the concept of training. We are always happy to attract young IT enthusiasts from the region, but especially this year. Many other companies are having to step on the brakes here.
