Istanbul, 2 March 2018 - Airline and travel IT solution provider Hitit has started a new initiative targeting young graduates. Hitit and Istanbul’s Ozyegin University Faculty of Aviation and Aeronautical Sciences have been collaborating for two years. Hitit has stepped up and hired new graduates in its headquarter.
Özyeğin University is a private, non-profit university located in Istanbul (Turkey). Hitit Computer Services and the Ozyegin University Faculty of Aviation and Aeronautical Sciences have been working in an academic collaboration for two years. Thanks to this partnership Hitit experts have lectured for the Reservation and Management Systems course. The content of the course helped students to understand inventory management, fares, marketing tools, central reservations, online and mobile reservations and ticketing, agency distribution, check-in and departure control as well as a call center service.
In 2018 five graduates from the Aviation Management Program have been recruited by different departments of Hitit. They will find a valuable career opportunity that reflects their academic knowledge within a professional working atmosphere. Furthermore, they will be trained as advanced aviation professionals using Hitit’s global distribution system (GDS), passenger service system (PSS), crew management, schedule planning, revenue and cost accounting processes.
Hitit CEO Nur Gökman said: “At Hitit we have developed software and technologies for the airline and travel sectors’ future”. We have turned the company as the preferred choice for dynamic providers in the market today”, said Mrs. Gökman. According to IATA forecasts Turkey will enter the Top-10 largest markets with its 119 million new passengers soon.
Therefore, as one of the fastest-growing markets, we must share our knowledge and experience with a new generation. This academic collaboration has been one of our goals and we are really delighted with this achievement. We want to ensure that both the collaboration and employment policy build and grow on a sustainable basis.”
