100:00:00,933 --> 00:00:01,899
In 2020
200:00:01,966 --> 00:00:04,599
NTT Brasil was on a rapid growth trajectory.
3
00:00:05,266 --> 00:00:06,366
Despite our ongoing efforts
4
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:08,566
to build a diverse team,
5
00:00:09,266 --> 00:00:10,366
we faced challenges
6
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:12,266
in recruiting qualified candidates
7
00:00:12,300 --> 00:00:14,300
within a limited budget and deadline.

In Brazil

1000:00:18,166 --> 00:00:20,466
faced barriers in accessing quality education.
1100:00:21,133 --> 00:00:22,933
A notable example is the IT sector,
1200:00:22,933 --> 00:00:24,666
where only 20%
1300:00:24,766 --> 00:00:26,566
of the staff is comprised of women
14
00:00:26,700 --> 00:00:27,600
and among them,

Confronted with this challenging scenario
18
00:00:35,666 --> 00:00:36,499
of difficulty
1900:00:36,933 --> 00:00:38,799
in sourcing professionals from diverse groups
20
00:00:39,133 --> 00:00:41,299
with the required skills within the given timeframe
21
00:00:41,533 --> 00:00:43,766
and budget for positions,22
00:00:44,300 --> 00:00:45,700
we decided it was necessary
23
00:00:46,066 --> 00:00:47,299
to create an internship program
24
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:49,933
where professionals from different backgrounds
25
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:50,999

00:00:51,366 --> 00:00:53,866

27
00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:55,900
and be trained internally,
28
00:00:56,300 --> 00:00:58,366
with continuous monitoring of managers,
29
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,966
they could develop within our culture.
30
00:01:01,566 --> 00:01:02,366
Our goal

Sensitivity Label: General31
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:05,600
was to reduce inequality and promote diversity.

00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:08,000
The true innovative nature of33
00:01:08,166 --> 00:01:08,733
the program

professionals based on their behavioral
38

competencies and aligned with NTT’s culture.
39
00:01:18,266 --> 00:01:19,466
During a 24-month period,
40
00:01:19,533 --> 00:01:21,699
interns go through a robust

00:01:21,900 --> 00:01:22,700

and individual aspirations of each participant.

Sensitivity Label: General46
00:01:32,366 --> 00:01:34,199
It all began during the pandemic,
47
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,900
everything was closed when I arrived here in Brazil.
48
00:01:37,966 --> 00:01:39,466
So, I had almost no contact
49
00:01:39,966 --> 00:01:41,733
with any Brazilians,50
00:01:42,466 --> 00:01:44,066
and then I was thinking,51
00:01:44,166 --> 00:01:45,366'My God, how is it going to be?
52
00:01:45,366 --> 00:01:46,366
How will I be received?
53
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:49,800
But when I joined that livestreamed session,
54
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:50,600
in that Link
55
00:01:51,066 --> 00:01:52,466
I saw kind people

Seriously? I want to join this company!
61
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,933
Well, I used to work as a janitor
62
00:02:10,766 --> 00:02:11,766
before joining NTT
63
00:02:13,066 --> 00:02:15,133
I got this opportunity
64
00:02:15,666 --> 00:02:19,499
as a pre-sales architect intern
65
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:22,066
and decided that I was born for this.

concern that I wouldn't be able

to secure an internship due to my age,71
00:02:33,500 --> 00:02:36,066
as I started my graduation after turning forty
72
00:02:37,066 --> 00:02:39,299
This changed completely
73
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,466

And the company is fantastic,

offering

for my family as well.
83
00:03:00,933 --> 00:03:03,666
We were able to bring a lot of diversity into NTT
84
00:03:04,533 --> 00:03:06,133
and a great example are women.
85
00:03:06,133 --> 00:03:07,099
We significantly increased

and I am an example of that.
92
00:03:17,133 --> 00:03:17,999
I started as an intern

and became a permanent employee

00:03:20,366 --> 00:03:22,599
I had opportunities that I had never had in my life.
