International IT and SAP Recruitment
The IT market has experienced an accelerated growth in the last decades. More and more companies have discovered that IT systems can bring them the competitive advantage that they need in order to increase their profits and to offer better services for their customers.
IT Recruitment will continue to grow
I see this trend continuing and I believe that information,
technology and communication will shape the world's future in this century .
The economic turmoil from the last 2 years has contributed to a slow-down in the investment for the IT projects. Many projects have been canceled or put on hold. But the pressure is growing and more and more companies are realizing that they are loosing opportunities because their IT systems are not efficient enough. This is why I believe that the IT projects will soon resume and the demand for IT specialists will continue to grow on the medium and long term.
IT recruitment needs to be international
The IT workforce in the European Union is getting more and more mobile. People are often changing their residence in search for a better job.
One important trend that leads to increased mobility is the specialization of the employees. The new products and the evolution of the technology sector have created
jobs that did not exist 50 years ago: SAP Consultant, C# .Net developer, Java Engineer, Oracle Data Base Administrator.
Because the telecommunication possibilities have evolved tremendously now international companies can afford to cut costs by centralizing most of their IT functions
in one single location and from this location they offer IT services to all the department of the companies. This has lead to the development of important hubs for the IT industry and the centralization of most of the IT jobs in just a few European cities. So people in search of better career opportunities will have to relocate to one of these cities in order to improve their chances of getting the job that they want.
This is why recruitment agencies have to work at international level in order to take advantage of this new trends and not to loose valuable candidates.
