SQS Software wins IT Leading Employer Award

Based on an independent survey of non-management IT staff, run by TalentAlign IT in conjunction with the Computer Society of South Africa (CSSA), SQS' investment in employee recruitment and care earned them the award over two other shortlisted IT companies at the annual CSSA awards.

"The IT Leading Employer award is one of only five titles we award on an annual basis," said Tony Parry from CSSA. "SQS has put significant effort and thought into the recruitment and management of its employees while demonstrating an understanding of employee engagement as a critical success factor. The award recognises SQS as an outstanding, employee-focused company that has succeeded in establishing itself as an IT employer of choice for staff across South Africa."

SQS' success in the annual CSSA awards is also a testament to the company's global employee relations. Many of the company's international graduate in-take attend a software quality boot camp in Durban. An intensive three week training course for up to 20 graduates at a time, the boot camp hosts graduates from South Africa, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Ireland and the United Kingdom to further their training in software quality as a career.
