Apple hires Ghanaian software engineer

The champion of Ghana’s Sharks Quiz Season 3 and a recent graduate of Academic City University College, Faith Sobe Cyril, has landed a Software Engineer role at Apple in London, UK.

Cyril, who earned first-class honors from Academic City College, has a history of academic excellence that has consistently set him apart.

His achievements are well-known to those who saw him recognized as the top student in the Sharks Quiz during his time at Legon Presbyterian Boys Secondary School.

As reported by Business Ghana, Cyril has been selected for Apple’s prestigious Evolve program, a demanding two-year rotational scheme designed to provide participants with hands-on experience across various departments within the company.

Throughout the program, he will collaborate with three different teams, contributing to innovative projects and building diverse expertise.

Having achieved straight A’s in his final national high school exams in Ghana in 2020, Cyril shared his excitement about this opportunity and his determination to make a significant impact at Apple.

“I am excited to be joining Apple and eager to learn from experienced engineers while making a meaningful impact on people’s lives across the globe,” he told Business Ghana.

Cyril also reflected on the demanding application process that led to this opportunity, acknowledging the challenges he faced and the perseverance required to succeed.

“I began by submitting my application through Apple’s careers website. The selection process was rigorous, starting with an essay round, followed by a technical interview, and then three consecutive panel interviews—two technical and one behavioral. A successful behavioral interview ultimately led to the offer,” he explained.

“My time at Academic City equipped me with the ability to juggle various academic and non-academic commitments, preparing me well for the challenges of the Evolve program,” Cyril said.

He expressed gratitude for the education he received at Academic City, attributing his current success to the skills and knowledge gained during his studies.

“Apple provides a dynamic atmosphere with challenging projects and ample opportunities for growth, which will enable me to develop the skills needed to achieve my long-term career goals,” he said.

As Cyril embarks on his software engineering journey, he remains committed to growth, emphasizing that Apple provides the perfect environment for his development.

Cyril’s accomplishments serve as a powerful example for aspiring young students in Ghana, motivating them to achieve excellence through hard work and academic dedication.
