“The IQbusiness internship has exposed me to a world I never knew existed. There’s always something new to learn, everyday. I have seen my confidence build up and I continue to see myself grow holistically as I learn to overcome challenges that I am faced with on a daily basis. I have gotten to learn that there is nothing that’s impossible especially when you have a supportive team behind you. My highlight has to be the culture at IQbusiness, the people there are what makes the business what it is, a success!”

Amogelang Mangole

“The IQbusiness Internship has given me a greater understanding of what it is I learnt in varsity and how to apply it to the real world. Each day I was met with new challenges and I had the opportunity to make decisions on my own with the help of an amazing team that always supported me. The IQbusiness internship has prepared me well for my professional career.”

Tokologo Sebe

When I wanted to make the transition into consulting, IQbusiness stood out as a great place to get training support and exposure to the best in the business. Their graduate training process grew me both personally and professionally. It is seldom that you find a company that is willing to invest in their people on the scale that IQbusiness does from advanced certifications to a culture of ongoing learning. My career in consulting is stronger for having started at IQbusiness.

Mikaela Oosthuizen

“The IQbusiness Internship has been an amazing way for me to grow and develop in the management consulting space, and find my true joy in life. Throughout this internship, I’ve been able to enhance my technical and soft skills, but also understand the areas in which I need to grow. There have been so many opportunities IQbusiness has given me where I am able to obtain new skills and gain more knowledge about South Africa’s economy, as well as what it takes to make a business thrive. This internship is all about growth and gaining insight into what it’s like to be a consultant, and I will forever be grateful to IQbusiness for providing me with this invaluable experience.”
