Although I only recently started working at Anexia, I would not have known even a few weeks ago what these people were talking about. There are so many terms that you\u2019re not taught in school: What in the world is <a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/en\/hosting-it-solutions\/managed-hosting\/\">managed hosting<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingterms.com\/dictionary\/conversion_rate\/\">conversion<\/a>? It is really interesting to listen to people, even if it is tedious at times, especially in the morning. It starts with a heated topic and finally it ends in a loud discussion about <a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/en\/software-development\/web-development\/\">programming languages<\/a>. And then there are the kids, who are blasting out Bibi\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4gSOMba1UdM\"><em>Wap Bap<\/em><\/a> song and jumping around to it. Only one thing helps: Headphones in and back to sleep. I\u2019m speaking from experience: Every morning I spend two hours on the train on the way to work, because the company that is training me is far away in Klagenfurt. But I\u2019m happy to deal with the journey, and the discussions and the children jumping around, because I wanted and want to do an apprenticeship at an IT company.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2823\" src=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2.jpg\" alt=\"JOR_Christina_Rauter_2\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2-325x217.jpg 325w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_2-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Why is it worth all the effort? It\u2019s really difficult to find an apprenticeship in Carinthia. In the newspaper, you read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ots.at\/presseaussendung\/OTS_20170703_OTS0033\/arbeitsmarkt-positive-entwicklung-haelt-auch-im-juni-an\">\u201cUnemployment rates are really low and there are more apprenticeships than ever.\u201d<\/a> I know what you\u2019re thinking: Offline media is a thing of the past; no one reads them anymore. Still, I am one of the few people who still grabs a newspaper and flips through it now and again when half asleep. The newspapers are right: there are a lot of apprenticeships, but they\u2019re mainly in gastronomy and retail. Everyone has their own wishes and dreams, and it\u2019s not everyone&#8217;s dream to work in those fields. I went to a school with focus on gastronomy and I didn\u2019t particularly like it. I mean, I&#8217;m not a terrible cook, but do my guests really want to eat burned pudding? I don\u2019t think so! That\u2019s why I am all the happier now that I have found something I like. As of June 19th, I can call myself a Junior Marketing Manager in training at Anexia! When I read the job post from Anexia, I immediately wrote up and sent an application, and then waited, hoping I would be invited to an interview. Everything worked out and two weeks later, on my birthday, I was accepted. What a nice surprise for my birthday.<\/p>\n<p>I find it really interesting doing an apprenticeship in IT. \u201cIT is the future\u201d, and it isn\u2019t just the people on the train who say that. Now I\u2019m learning a lot of new things and getting a completely different view of things. To be honest, I never really gave much thought to where a website is stored, or how much work goes into an <a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/en\/software-development\/app-development\/\">app<\/a>. It\u2019s not enough just to know which content is well received by which audience. You should also have a good understanding of the technology behind it, and the best way to get this understanding is at an IT company.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2843\" src=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1-325x217.jpg 325w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_1_2-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am still pretty new to it, but I can already say: I would definitely apply to Anexia again. I like challenges, and I always find them here; and not just on the long train ride. Even just proofreading or sending packages means: I have responsibility and am trusted to manage this area. Thus I am also a part of the team and a small cog in the machine that keeps the shop running. This is very important to me when choosing a job. I am often asked: \u201cHow do you like it at Anexia? Isn\u2019t it exhausting having to travel so far every day?\u201d All I can say is: There are always things that you won\u2019t like, no matter where you are. And riding the train is not so bad: you learn a lot, you can relax, and you end up with funny train stories to tell.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2837\" src=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2.jpg\" alt=\"JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2.jpg 1081w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2-325x216.jpg 325w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anexia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/JOR_Christina_Rauter_3_2-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In her blog post series our marketing trainee Chrisi talks about her apprenticeship.
