Access to highly skilled IT talent pool
will help meet growing demand for company's innovative
services
MONTREAL, Aug. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Alithya (TSX: ALYA)
(NASDAQ: ALYA) is pleased to announce the opening of a subsidiary
office in Tangier, Morocco, where
it looks to leverage the North African country's rich IT talent
pool in order to bolster the expertise of its teams, and to help
advance the innovative work of Alithya's global Digital Solutions
Center that already comprises over 650 highly skilled
professionals.
As Alithya continues to expand its operations in North America and Europe, a growing demand for its
transformation services requires new and creative approaches to
find highly skilled IT professionals to support our client's needs.
In order to offset regional shortages, Alithya is recruiting from
Morocco's expansive pool of young,
university educated IT professionals. The new recruits, who will
primarily engage in remote work, will be integrated into Alithya's
North American and European teams and work on global projects.
A gateway to IT recruitment
Tangier, Morocco's second largest
economic hub, is home to three engineering schools that have
developed more than 8,000 graduates currently seeking employment
opportunities. From that large tech base, Alithya is expanding the
pool of expertise made available to its customers in existing
markets. Additionally, Morocco's
tech-educated workforce is comprised of an abundance of English and
French speakers, addressing both main languages employed by
Alithya's operations.
