The Changing Technology Landscape

Last year, we have seen the market become more service-oriented. Businesses looking to remain competitive took on the challenges of the digital world—advancing their technology assets and experiencing huge transformations.

How well is your business adapting to this shift going into 2018?

This will continue to ramp up as advancements in the digital technology landscape continue to grow, increasing the demand for emerging IT Infrastructure skillsets.

What are the key trends that you need to be on the look out for throughout 2018? As your IT department will be expected to keep up with the changing technology landscape and deliver new features faster, how do you plan to do it? How do you know if you’re meeting the highest standards and following the best practices?

Attracting the Best Talent

This year will continue to see employers placing emphasis on flexible working arrangements, career pathways, and upskilling in agile methodologies and new technologies to attract the best talent. Why?

Because in the previous years, employers came to realise that candidates were no longer enticed solely on financial reward, resulting to a candidate-driven market.

Recruiting in the IT Infrastructure Sector

Firstly, job seekers are now passive. Rather than actively seeking out new roles, they have been carefully keeping an eye on the job market, waiting for the right role to find them.

This, combined with the increasing talent shortages, means multiple businesses are competing for the attention of a single candidate.

Do you have the right people with the right skills by the time you need them? What is it that attracts the top candidates to a role? What are they looking for in salaries and benefits within the IT Infrastructure sector?
