On the 4th of March 2020, SOFTECH team from Cluj-Napoca was once again present at the Babeș-Bolyai University meeting – Bittologatók – with students enrolled in the study of Informatics, Computer Science and Mathematics to present its much appreciated Codespring Mentoring Program for 2020 – 2021. Since we enjoyed a full house in the historical amphitheater, we are positive that students appreciated the wealth of research themes and projects presented by SOFTECH software development team.
Bits and Pieces From our Meetup at the Uni
The meeting was chaired by our colleague – dr. Simon Károly, one of the most active promoters of Codespring Mentoring Program.
As an introductory note, eng. Szelyes Levente – CEO, presented the history of SOFTECH from its foundation in 1998 and up to this year, when it got in the ranks of FT1000 – European Fastest Growing Companies. He also emphasized the importance of human resources in the field of software development and the high expectations that SOFTECH has from the quality perspective. A special point was made on the organic growth strategy, which implies the development of a team who grows naturally by attracting the best talent that fits this company’s culture.
Next, dr. Sulyok Csaba – Mentoring Program Coordinator, presented the what, the how and the why of Codespring Mentoring Program. Short and efficient in its presentation, Csaba presented the students the MP1, MP2 and MP3 modules and how they can align this program to their academic curricula. He also discussed the importance of having a dedicated mentor, fully active in the professional software field and how students get to work on several research projects, get a glimpse of their future work life and are more set for the actual professional life.
With a high energy and very dynamic presence, dr. Barabas Laszlo – CTO at SOFTECH took over to present the upcoming technical trainings for:
- Quality Assurance and Automated Testing Training – the program focusing on build automation, continuous integration, REST API testing, E2E testing in web and mobile environments, acceptance tests, robot framework automation and performance test.

In the end, our new colleagues Orsi and Boti, who attended the Codespring Mentoring Program and decided to stick with us in their software development careers, presented their own experiences with the mentoring program from a very cool and fun perspective.
After the meeting, everyone was invited for a quick byte and fresh beer at one of our traditional meeting places in Cluj-Napoca. The students had the chance to ask their questions and learn some fun stories from our life at SOFTECH.
Codespring Mentoring Program In Short
Started around the end of 2010 beginning of 2011, Codespring Mentoring Program was set to align the company’s needs of highly prepared human resources and the academic sector’s quest for reliable private partners in the field of software development and IT.
