Points clés à retenir
In Africa, the dearth of talent for digital roles has resulted in a war that sees big companies able to offer fat paychecks poach prized human assets from smaller counterparts. The shortage of tech talent is not a new problem and may not be resolved anytime soon with the demand for software engineers expected to grow as the technology industry grows. Efforts are needed to plug this gap, and players like AltSchool Africa are pivotal to expanding the continent’s tech talent pool.
