About Us

In today’s fast-changing job market, graduates worldwide face a significant challenge: bridging the gap between education and meaningful employment. While equipped with qualifications, many find it difficult to land their first job due to a lack of experience. This "Experience Challenge" often leaves graduates feeling stuck, unable to kickstart their careers and secure their futures.

Each year, millions of graduates enter the workforce with high hopes of finding the right job, one that aligns with their aspirations and education. However, many quickly realize how competitive the job market can be. Without the right work experience, even the most talented individuals struggle to get their foot in the door.

Many graduates feel like their lives are on hold after university, facing the daunting reality of unemployment or being stuck in jobs unrelated to their studies. This can lead to feelings of frustration, anxiety, and even hopelessness, making it difficult to stay motivated while searching for the right opportunities.

That’s why we founded OrangLight, the "Uber for Remote Internships." A South African based startup with the mission to connect graduates everywhere to remote internships with leading startups, small businesses, and non-profit organizations globally. We are solving the experience gap by democratizing how international jobs and internships are accessed.

With OrangLight, you have the chance to:

Gain valuable experience in your chosen field.
Explore different industries and cultures without the complexities of immigration.
Stand out from the competition by enhancing your resume and personal brand with global experience.

One of the best things of remote internships is the potential to earn in a foreign currency. This will not only help you gain independence but also provides a buffer against high costs of living. By earning in stronger currencies, you can gain your independene, improve your quality of life, and invest in your future.

Moreover, remote internships offer the freedom to work from anywhere, allowing you to shape your career around your lifestyle—whether that means traveling, pursuing personal hobbies, spending time with loved ones, or enjoying a flexible work-life balance.

If you’re ready to take control of your future, gain the experience needed to succeed, and explore new opportunities without borders, join us at OrangLight. Together, we’ll unlock your potential and help you navigate the global job market.
