The technology industry expanded rapidly during the pandemic years and businesses rushed towards digitalisation and new working practices. 

However, since 2022 we have had high inflation, high interest rates, macro-economic and global uncertaincies that have all taken their toll on the tech sector leading to record numbers of lay offs.

That said, Initi8 Recruitment has seen a marked increase in senior level jobs, which is usually a great barometer of the IT sector. 

Our teams are reporting increased activity and more people in secure jobs moving to new companies.

If this is actually a broader trend then it is great news for our industry, and more importantly that you know what is happening so you can tweak your hiring plans.

With this in mind we are canvassing 3,500 CTOs to get their thoughts on the market and will compile a whitepaper on the state of the market for the New Year, which will help you to shape your hiring plans for 2025.

By participating, you're not only voicing your experiences but also gaining exclusive access to a wealth of aggregated knowledge.

The outcomes will be compiled into a comprehensive Whitepaper to be published at the end of January 2025 —an invaluable resource offering a snapshot of current trends, challenges, opportunities, and comparisons which you can use to inform your latest tech recruitment strategy.
 

What's in It for You?  

1. Gain Insider Insights: The Whitepaper will serve as a rich source of aggregated industry insights, highlighting trends, pain points, and successful strategies. This knowledge can inform your recruitment approaches, helping you to better attract and secure top talent.
2. Talent report:  As a thank you we will be happy to create a bespoke talent report for your business or the technical market you are interested in. #
3. Prize draw:  The chance to win a brand new iPad for 2025.
