The transition that the industrial sector is experiencing with the arrival of digitalization, and the transformation of the productive and business processes this is causing, make it imperative to have highly qualified talent and professionals to face the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

“The Fourth Industrial Revolution has taken our company to go a step further: we want to incorporate into our team of highly qualified professionals, the best profiles with skills in the STEAM branches in the different areas of the business, but the current high demand for these Profiles in the market is one of the obstacles to face,” said Nogales.
