You graduated. You’ve been applying for months. The rejections — when they come at all — say the same thing: not enough experience. For a job you need experience to get. We built a way through it.
iO-Sphere works with Oxfordshire employers who’d rather hire on proven ability than a CV with no work history on it. Instead of sifting applications, we select candidates through a 10-week programme where you work on real data and show what you can actually do — and our partner employers hire directly from the cohort.
It’s fully funded by Enterprise Oxfordshire through the Skills Bootcamps programme — free to you, no fees to the employer.
How it works
- Apply — quick eligibility check and a short screening call
- Join the cohort — 10 weeks working in PRISM, our simulated company with 500m+ rows of real data
- Build a portfolio — Excel, Power BI, BigQuery, AI tools and real stakeholder projects
- Meet employers — partners hire the best directly from the cohort
- Get placed — if a partner doesn’t hire you, you get continued career coaching until you land a role
Over 800 people we’ve trained now work at companies including Ocado, Cook Food, and Dunelm.
This is for you if
- You’re a recent graduate, a career‑changer, or returning to work and ready for something new
- You’re analytical and numerate, with strong written and spoken English
- You can commit full‑time for 10 weeks from 6 July 2026
- You live in Oxfordshire and have the right to work in the UK (no sponsorship)
This isn’t for you if
- You can’t commit full-time for the 10 weeks
We strongly encourage applications from women, people of colour, LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, parents, and people with disabilities. Reasonable adjustments available throughout.
