Remutify by Utidia transformed my career journey! As a data analyst and digital marketing professional in Nigeria, I was struggling to find the right remote opportunities. Remutify provided invaluable resources, networking connections, and expert guidance that helped me stand out. I'm thrilled to say I landed a fantastic remote job with a US-based firm where I'm truly making a difference. Remutify is more than a community; it's an empowering force for African talent!
The Utidia Apprenticeship Institute (UAI) was a game-changer for me! I knew I wanted a career in tech, but I lacked the practical skills and industry connections. UAI's hands-on apprenticeship program provided me with the real-world experience I needed to excel. The mentorship and support were incredible, and I landed a full-time remote position with a US firm right after completing the program. UAI truly sets you up for success!
Finding skilled remote talent who understood our brand was a real challenge for Digi Med Records. Utidia was the solution! They connected me with two incredibly talented individuals from Africa – a video editor and a social media specialist – who have brought fresh ideas and expertise to our team. Their contributions have significantly boosted our engagement and growth. Utidia is now my go-to resource for finding top-tier remote talent
