Company

Our Story

The @Cape idea began early in 2004 when a group of recent graduates from France, Germany and South Africa had the idea to provide a service to international students who dream of successfully acquiring an internship in South Africa. It was clear to us then as it is now that the service was already being offered by many other companies. However, it was our aim to give our company a unique flavour by offering true personalised service. We have the advantage of being recent graduates ourselves placing us in a true 1:1 position with our clients. We dispense with formalities encouraging our clients to be comfortable with us and we do the same. We do however maintain a standard of professionalism and competence when dealing with your application and our network of companies.
