Joining CloudRock as a Workday Extend Developer was a big leap from college, but one I’m grateful for. I moved from theory to real-world problem solving, supported by a collaborative, growth-focused environment. The experience helped me build not just technical skills, but confidence and purpose too.

Starting at CloudRock shattered every expectation, what I thought would be a rigid tech space turned out to be a vibrant, people-first culture where curiosity is celebrated, support is constant, and growth happens daily. I learned that success isn’t about knowing everything, it’s about showing up, learning fast, and embracing the unknown. Looking back, I’m glad I didn’t see it coming, because the surprises made it unforgettable.

Joining CloudRock through the Cultivate 3.0 Graduate Programme marked a powerful transition from student to consultant. Coming from a non-technical background, the hands-on Workday training, real-world simulations, and strong mentorship helped me build both skill and confidence. More than just systems knowledge, Cultivate shaped how I think, collaborate, and solve problems. It laid the foundation for a mindset I carry with me every day in my role.

One year after joining CloudRock through the Cultivate Programme, I can confidently say it was a career-defining experience. From learning Workday from scratch to working on real client challenges, the journey was filled with support, laughter, and growth. Cultivate wasn’t just about technical training, it created a space to collaborate, take ownership, and grow into the role of a confident consultant. More than skills, it shaped my mindset: to stay curious, embrace change, and keep moving forward.
