Hi!
You are about to read an Tech Market Snapshot summarising the first quarter
of 2022.
Although a lot happened in the first quarter that might directly influence
the labour market (the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Polish New Deal,
the inflation rate), the aggregated data are far from revolutionary.
Salaries are still on the rise and the report addressed the question of
what kind of remote work is most beneficial to tech specialists as it is even
more popular than in the previously analysed, all in all record-breaking,
quarter. The number of tech job ads is constantly growing and differences
in salaries between large and small cities are disappearing.
In the analysed quarter 3,968 employers (8% more than in the previous
quarter) published 26,121 job posts (a 10% increase comparing to the end
of 2021), which might be related to publishing Spring job ads directed
to interns and the opening of new companies in Poland.
In this edition we have also presented data on salaries in the category of
cyber security, as demand for this specialisation has been steadily growing,
just as salaries.
In view of the above, how should you approach recruitment in tech this
year?
You should definitely follow the market trend. Publishing market salary
ranges, a possibility of remote work or a few options of the form
of cooperation to choose from still play a significant role in recruitment
in IT. If, additionally, a recruitment process is quick and a candidate
receives feedback, it might well be the key to increasing the effectiveness
of recruitment processes in many organisations.
I believe that recruitment in tech will be more challenging than ever for
those companies whose management boards do not support recruitment
departments in the process of drafting an attractive job ad for candidates.

market, reading our report is a way to do it :)
