Bayt.com and IIR form alliance

Bayt.com will serve as IIR's Official Regional Recruitment Partner and the two companies will concurrently expand the array of products and services available to their respective users.

The key feature of the agreement will be an expanded set of products, services and key value-added content made available to both customer databases directly pertaining to professional career growth, learning and development. The agreement will include mutual promotion of relevant value-added services on the companies' respective websites, newsletters, mailers and handouts.

"We believe that this alliance will prove to be enormously beneficial to both parties and to our respective clients," said Rabea Ataya, CEO, Bayt.com. "There is a natural fit between our company and IIR, which complements our dedicated career services platform with a rich and state-of-the-art professional training and development overlay."

We are delighted, through this alliance, to offer our 1.5 million professional user database a window to a new world of opportunity on this front."

"IIR prides itself on fostering the talents and abilities of people either entering the workplace or hoping to advance professionally," said Louise Jeffreys, Marketing Director, IIR Middle East.
