Hiring
“We’ve been hiring from the CST program since 1999. This year we interviewed 15 students – with the intention of hiring three – but we wound up hiring five. Quite frankly, all of them were qualified.” Brian and Richard Taylor CAMS Software
“BCIT students adapt very well to the DevOps principles and are a great cultural fit for Cloudreach. They have a solid understanding of technologies, such as Cloud, AWS, network administration, scripting and Linux/Windows system administration–all of which we use heavily. We’re incredibly happy with our relationship with BCIT and look forward to adding more BCIT alumni to our team!”
Alberto Alvarez, Employer, Cloud Leader, Cloudreach Canada Inc.
