CAF Offers Job Opportunities for Youth Committed to Latin American Development
Through the Young Professionals for Development (PRODES) Program, the institution opens up an opportunity for talented youth to join an international organization where they can contribute to the development of the region with creativity, innovation and a vocation of service.
In order to provide job and development opportunities to young professionals, CAF—development bank of Latin America— is opening up its Young Professionals for Development (PRODES) Program to incorporate new talent. Candidates may apply from February 15 to May 30, 2021.
The PRODES Program offers full-time jobs, with the benefits of an international body, in an environment where talent contributes to the development of the region in multidisciplinary teams and with methodologies based on best practices, creativity and innovation.
“Promoting sustainable development and regional integration requires innovative ideas, the best talent and a vocation for service. Therefore, we are looking for young people that fit this profile in order to offer them a space for personal and professional growth in one of the largest contributors to the well-being of Latin Americans,” said Luis Carranza Ugarte, executive president of CAF.
This initiative is aimed at young people aged 30 or so, with a university degree, with a completed—or pursuing a—master’s degree, outstanding academic performance (in the top 20% of their class), fluid mastery of the English language (knowledge of Portuguese is also desirable), with work experience between 2 and 5 years, oriented to achievement, vocation of service, social purpose and commitment to the region.
Through the PRODES Program, young people will participate in an onboarding process into CAF’s corporate strategy and culture, develop specialized professional and technical skills in their relevant area, and will be supported by a mentor, who will also act as a direct supervisor, among other benefits.
Those interested in being part of one of the most relevant and prominent financial development institutions in Latin America, devoted to country development and regional integration, must apply as of February 15.
