First impressions from the world of training at SMF

‘No one influences us in our career choice as much as our family. In Tobi’s case, it wasn’t his parents who tipped the scales in favour of training as an Assistant Manager IT Systems at SMF – but his cousin Felix.

He did his training as an IT specialist for system integration there and was so satisfied that Tobi was also quickly convinced.’ Dortmund at work
