Job Offers and Employer Trends in the Polish IT Market
The number of companies publishing IT job offers in Poland
While the number of IT job offers has seen a decline of 4.6%, the count of companies publishing these job offers is on the rise – witnessing a 13% growth.
Michał Gąszczyk, CEO at inhire.io, states:
“The current number of job offers remains similar to that three months ago, hovering around 18,000. Despite this, there’s a surge in the companies posting them (+13%).
This trend mirrors the scenario post-pandemic where in Q2 2020 only 2431 firms published offers but by Q3, this number jumped to 2979. The growth from 2680 to 3028 this year could be an indicator of companies adapting to the crisis, hinting at a gradual market thaw. While it’s challenging to deduce a clear answer, it’s worth watching the industry closely in the upcoming Q4.”
