''The decision to work with Clevry was extremely easy. CGI has recruitment needs in data management and analytics in healthcare and social welfare services. Clevry has sourced good talent for CGI, brought them in for consideration, and we’ve made good recruitments that way.

My busy schedule made me want help in recruiting, and as an additional benefit, the initial training was done with Accelerate by Clevry program. Especially data side tools require this tailored training service.

In practice, the recruitment process goes like this; the person is first trained by Clevry, they work for us for a year as a subcontractor and after that, we have the opportunity to hire them ourselves. We’ve had very successful experiences with this model.”
