PayPal Israel Launches ReCharge Program

November 7, 2017 | PayPal Israel has launched the ReCharge program, a 20-week paid structured program for women who want to return to the high-tech workforce after taking an extended break from their careers.  The program is part of PayPal’s global initiative to encourage skilled women technologists who have taken a career break for personal or family reasons to return to the workforce. The program provides ways for these women to “recharge” by sharpening their technical and soft skills, expanding their experience, and finding ways for them to network with their respective industries. There is also the opportunity to join PayPal as a permanent (full-time or part-time) employee after the program.  Women can apply for positions that include Analytic Data Scientists, JAVA Software Developer, QA Automation, and Security Automation Engineer. While anyone can apply, PayPal says that is specifically looking for women that have been out of the workforce for at least two years. The Israeli program begins in December and runs through April 2018, but applications should be submitted by November 8.
