Ravic Costa
Graduate Project Assistant 2006-2007
Ravic left the IGA in April 2007 and went on to work for Kodak. He came from Portugal to InfoLab21 through European Commission's Leonardo da Vinci scheme after gaining a degree in Telecommunication and Computer Science Engineering from ISCTE University in Lisbon.
On completing his internship at the IGA he reflected;
"Now that the placement at KBC has come to an end, I am confident that the entire experience will be very important to my future career prospects. As a result of all the technical progress I have made during the last six months, I am sure that I am much better prepared for modern demands in the workplace and that I can easily find a job that fulfils my expectations. Regarding the future, I am more interested in investing in my personal development now than before I came into the KBC. I can confidently say I have a clear idea on what I want to achieve in my career.
"Being able to work with SMEs in the North West of England and making a contribution to their development and subsequently to the development of the region was a huge motivation as it made me feel that the work that I was doing brought benefits to the local community."
