Young people in Morocco face significant barriers to employment, including lack of work experience, qualifications and a lack of access to the relevant information to find the right job. Thus as a result, young students, graduates and the unemployed have limited, if any knowledge of the demands and requirements of the Moroccan job market. The sustained growth and expansion of the Internet has become a tool for the democratization of access to information and in turn, it has become the preferred media of choice for Moroccan youth.
