LiveinCalgary.com; a new resource for future and current Calgarians
A new online resourceis aimed at reminding Calgarians of the regionıs greatest attributes while also sharing its appeal with workers and families from around the globe.
Earlier this month, Calgary Economic Development (CED) launched LiveinCalgary.com. Targeted at longtime Calgarians as well as people considering a move to the area, this website aggregates and organizes information about topics from immigration to shopping and schools to theatre. Rich in content, the site features an interactive photo gallery called Picture Yourself which allows site users to explore attractions and locations in and around the city as well as an interactive map which provides information and links about communities and neighbourhoods.
Employers are also encouraged to link to Liveincalgary.com from the Jobs sections of their websites as well as their intranet portals.
The site development was supported by Calgary Economic Development, Alberta Employment and Immigration and the business community through CEDıs Action Calgary initiative. Throughout the development, which was completed by Calgary-based interactive marketing firm Evans Hunt Group, a task force of local employers, recruiters and immigrant serving agencies guided and validated site content and design.
More than ever in history, todayıs workforce is a mobile one. Weıre confident LiveinCalgary.com will remind people why moving to - and staying in - Calgary is a clear choice.
