THE Covid-19 pandemic is no deterrent for Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (Digi) to run the fifth instalment of its CXO Apprentice Programme.

Not only were the candidates recruited through online applications and assessments, the apprenticeship, which began last September, has been conducted fully digitally – both the first of its kind for the company.
