“Participating in HNG i9reshaped our approach to coding and collaboration,
On October 1, 2022, the countdown began with a whopping 18,401 interns flooding the digital corridors of HNG i9! Among them were design mavens, code warriors, and a whole squad of tech enthusiasts itching to level up their skills.
Breaking the mold from past cohorts, this time around, project managers stepped up as mentors, guiding the collective force towards one epic goal.
While the spotlight often shines on the final product, this cohort revealed the true magic behind it: our developers. They weren't just coders; they were problem-solvers, innovators, and the architects of seamless user experiences. From tackling complex challenges to crafting elegant solutions, they transformed lines of code into functional brilliance. Their dedication and ingenuity were the foundation upon which our project's success was built.
As we closed the chapter on HNG i9, we recognized the incredible achievements of over 500 finalists, each a future leader in the tech industry. Their diverse skills and collaborative spirit were the driving force behind this cohort's success.
