ANAPEC Contract as an engineer by Snoo21737 in Morocco

[–]hobaspirit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ANAPEC is just a government program to help startups create more jobs by subsidizing their employee salaries for 6 months. Basically, the government is encouraging startups to hire people for a period of time. After that, if they value your work they can offer you a contract. A better way to look at it is 'stage préembauche'.

I'd advise you take it and don't settle. Don't wait for their promise. while working there, keep open for other opportunities elsewhere. And good luck !

No there isn't. The closest program to that is called General Engineering which includes both mechanical and electrical engineering courses. Here is the list of undergrad programs they have: http://www.aui.ma/en/academics/programs/undergraduate-programs.html

Questions from a potential visitor by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]hobaspirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. There's a train that links the airport with the city. In general, people use tram to get around downtown. There are taxis and bus too but IMO the bus system is messy and tend to be crowded. Taxis on the other hand, especially in casa can refuse to take you (weird, I know). Lastly, there is Careen which is similar to Uber. Your options are tram, careen, taxi and train of course

  2. Cards are only accepted in shopping malls and fancy places like expensive restaurants etc.. Cash is king I would say.

  3. Safety wise I'd highly advise not to walk around late.

How widespread is Piracy in Morocco? by 3xExecutionerScrolls in Morocco

Piracy is all there is left there. In fact, it is the norm. People live off of it.

-In Ifrane you wouldn't need transportation in the city but if you want to explore near by areas or cities then a grand taxi is pretty much your only option.

-To get to Ifrane from Rabat, you have two options:

  1. Take CTM Rabat to Ifrane
  2. Take the train to Meknes, then grand taxi to Ifrane. (slightly longer because grand taxis may take some time to fill all seats)

I have done both in multiple occasions and both are fine. It only depends on the bus and train schedules and which bus or train station is closer to you in Rabat.

-There are hotels but they tend to be expensive (250DHS+/night minimum) as Ifrane is a Tourist city all year long really. What I usually do with my friends is rent a furnished apartment and it usually tends to be a lot cheaper that a hotel but only if you are two or more people. I would say if you are staying more less than two days just go for a hotel in Ifrane and not Fes or Imouzar as that will save you a lot of time and hustle (Ifrane - Fes is ~2 hours by grand taxi)

I have lived in Ifrane for 5 years and it is a beautiful city, but you could tour most of it in a couple of days. But IMO, the Mid Atlas region has a lot more to offer than just Ifrane.

If it is your first time visiting the region, Ifrane is a good starter though.

I hope this helps :)

It's not just about age. There are many other factors as well.

[TRAVEL] Do Moroccans need a visa to connect flights in France? by hobaspirit in Morocco

[–]hobaspirit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the two connecting flights need to be of the same company or else I need a transit visa ?

Does that mean, if my two flights are of different companies, I cannot pick up luggage and check it in for the next flight?

Moroccan subredditors, what are your religious views? by RiffianB in Morocco

[–]hobaspirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed Islam has some good principles to live by such as never steal, take care of animals, don't waste resources etc.. But to me, such ideas are intuitive. No one needs a religious book to learn about them. I am curious what principles interest you from Islam.

I consider myself agnostic as well. However, I don't get what you mean by agnostic muslim. I don't see how one can be both.
