The Future Looks Bright in IT Recruitment

By . December 20, 2018
The world of IT recruitment is constantly evolving and with an improving economy and a growing bank of talent for employers to choose from, here is a rundown of the top three trends to look out for over the coming months.

Competition heating up

With the economy strengthening, businesses are preparing to invest more in recruiting new talent. As hiring activity increases, the talent pool will begin to shrink which means businesses need to refine their recruitment process and work hard to ensure they are attracting the best talent to their business. Using a specialist IT recruitment company can be invaluable, particularly if you are keen to bring on technical skills that you may not have needed before, such as big data and cloud computing.

Making your talent stay

As the market improves, people are becoming less worried about job security and are starting to think more often about opportunities elsewhere. This means that businesses should take measures to ensure that once they have recruited top quality talent, they give them the opportunities and incentives to retain them. Offering clear and promising personal development plans and attractive benefits packages will show employees that you care about them and see them as an integral part of the business’ future.

Social media takeover

Social media is set to play an even bigger role in the recruitment process. Many businesses already recognise the benefits it can deliver when recruiting new talent, as LinkedIn and other social profiles can provide a wealth of information about potential candidates. Plus, it can also be used as a valuable tool for advertising and promoting your vacancies to the relevant target market, with hash tags such as #itjobs being used to reach candidates who are looking for employment in the industry.
