In the IT industry, the QRC Group recruits executives and experts in the areas of sales, marketing, consulting, project management, technology, development and administration.
The human resources market in the IT industry is highly specialised, inhomogeneous and complex. This is also due to the fact that areas of activity, demands on expertise and the tools and methods used have grown at very inconsistent rates among many companies in recent years. Many companies expect a high willingness to travel from their employees. Others, however, have difficulties attracting qualified applicants due to their remote location. In addition to an excellent understanding of requirements as well a comprehensive understanding of the market, the main priorities for customers and applicants are human competence, communication and persuasiveness.
Many consultants and recruiters of the QRC Group were themselves in leading IT positions for many years and are therefore true industry insiders. In addition to a network that has grown over the years, they also dispose of up-to-date knowledge of the industry and support their customers in finding and selecting executives (Executive Search), in appointing experts (Expert Search) and in filling temporary positions via Interim Management. To recruit the best in the IT industry, use our direct contact service and get in touch with us today. We look forward to your project!
SUCCESS FACTOR: DIRECT CONTACT
There is hardly any IT company right now that is not facing an increased need for human resources. However, this means that even fewer candidates are available in the labour market for new positions. Conventional recruiting methods are therefore far from producing the results they did ten years ago. However, employee searches via social media portals are also an ineffective tool for contacting IT professionals. Directly contacting candidates via highly qualified and specialised HR consulting services, such as those offered by the QRC Group, is what motivates many of them to consider taking on a new task. And our detailed knowledge of different job profiles enables us to fill positions across sectors.
LOOKING FOR NEW CONSULTANTS?
There is a continuing demand for process consultants, software developers and specialists in requirements management. For the key area of digitisation, human resources are sought after in almost all areas – with the fields of supply chain management, business intelligence and SAP HANA in particular demand. There is also great demand in data centres and among companies that have not outsourced their IT infrastructure. Here, system engineers, administrators, IT security and network infrastructure experts are in particularly high demand. Especially in rural regions, the supply of experts is low.
CHALLENGE: IT SALES
Requirements in IT sales have changed dramatically within the last ten years. Today, well-trained sales specialists and managers with a broad technical background and extensive product knowledge are mainly in demand. Especially in solution sales and in new technologies, expertise in hardware, software, consulting and services is expected.
The market is gradually turning into a corporate recruitment market in which companies will have to contend for the best candidates, while the latter can choose their new positions among many interesting offers. To meet this rising challenge, the QRC Group relies on open and honest communication with candidates, as well as constructive communication and consulting. Because this is what distinguishes us from recruiters who tend to understand a job match strictly as a match between the requirements profile and the CV. The complexity of the actual communication process will increase dramatically in the future. This requires consultants for companies and candidates who are understanding, honest and open, and conduct intensive discussions. Only under these conditions will it be possible in the future to find the best and, above all, the right employees in the IT industry.
For months, felt years…, the IT media (e.g. Channel Partner 4/2020, p. 32) have been unanimously reporting that specialists and managers are in great demand in the IT industry, but that there is a great shortage of them. System houses and IT service providers fear for the real possible growth,…
