Headhunter IT – experienced, competent Senior Consultants with a good network

Due to the ongoing digitalisation of nearly all industries as well as the public sector the employment market addressing IT specialists is constantly growing offering a great variety of vacancies.

Many of these vacancies – not only in hard or software companies or consulting firms – are difficult to be filled given the huge discrepancy between the increased need and the market demand on one side and the lack of specialist or skilled management personnel on the other.

It is important to have intensive communication with the customer offering feedback with regards to the perception of the vacancy on the market. If necessary the consultant gives input regarding important goal-oriented adjustments to the requirements.
