Why France, you may ask? Well, because Noëlle, who already speaks French like Molière, heard about the great French engineering schools, and she thought, « Why not? »

As soon as she got her baccalaureate, she said to herself, « I want to be an engineer, » and since France has the best engineering schools in the world, she didn’t have to worry about the language barrier. Lucky for her, otherwise, she might have ended up speaking binary instead of French!

Good to know: A computer engineer, like Noëlle DELE, is a professional specialising in the design, development, and management of computer systems. They are the magicians of the digital world, capable of creating programs and applications that power our daily lives. From programming to solving complex problems, they are the true architects of the digital universe. Their work is essential in an increasingly technology-dependent world, and they contribute significantly to innovation and technological progress.

Noëlle was determined to secure an internship, so she flooded companies with CVs as if she were playing a casino game. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t. But no matter, Noëlle had the perseverance of a cat in front of a spilled bowl of milk. She even received valuable advice from her seniors, who know the realities of the working world. It seems she found her mentors, the Yodas of computing.

But Noëlle hadn’t said her last word. After her internship, she decided to look for work elsewhere, just to see if the grass was greener on the other side. She applied to everything that moved on recruitment platforms, seeking her dream job.

To get ahead, Noëlle started applying for a permanent contract even before the end of her internship. She played on all fields, from platforms like APEC to Jobteaser, and even with speculative applications. She left nothing to chance, and one could say she had nerves of steel.

Noëlle DELE, this computer virtuoso from Cameroon, not only overcame academic challenges in France, but she now shines within the prestigious company ARDATEM which is part of the Groupe Gérard Perrier Industrie (GPI), a French company specialising in the installation, maintenance, and commissioning of electrical equipment, instrumentation, and automation, particularly in the energy, nuclear, aeronautics, and other demanding sectors. The company is recognised for its expertise and is qualified by EDF at the national level. It also develops electronic and instrumentation products.

In her spare time, Noëlle is an accomplished choir master. She leads choirs and participates in enchanting musical performances. Recently, she conducted the Sainte Bakhita choir during a Christmas concert at the Saint Pavin church in Le Mans, celebrating hope and music. The concert reminded us of the importance of humility, fidelity, and audacity, while sharing the inspiring story of Bakhita, a former slave who became a nun.

Noëlle encourages everyone to have the audacity to believe in « better things » and to persevere. Her community, World like Home, continues its dream of helping students study in France more easily. A message of hope and determination for all.

As advice to young graduates, Noëlle wisely stated: « Work and perseverance will lead you to your goal. » Nothing more French than that statement, is there?

She also reassured newcomers to France, saying that adaptation is just a passing phase. « With time, you adapt and find your feet. » So, don’t panic, dear foreign friend, everything will eventually fall into place.

Finally, Noëlle describes herself as motivated, hardworking, and attentive. A bit like a mix between a well-oiled machine and a benevolent oracle. In short, a super heroine of computing who has overcome many trials to secure her permanent contract.

Her inspiring story reminds us that determination and passion are the keys to success, no matter where you are.
