3 Major IT Pain Points: Discover Tremoot's Smart Solutions

In a world where technology is at the core of nearly every business activity, the shortage of IT professionals endangers the progress of crucial projects. This shortage is characterized not only by a quantitative mismatch but also by a lack of qualitative alignment between available skills and business needs. In this blog, we highlight the three main pain points that companies are experiencing in 2023 in finding qualified IT professionals and how Tremoot offers tried-and-tested solutions for each of these challenges.

Pain Points

1. Extreme Scarcity in the ICT Labor Market

Since 2018, the scarcity in the ICT sector has significantly increased, as clearly evidenced by the growing labor shortage. This trend is illustrated in the graph below, which shows the escalation of this shortage since 2018.

Additionally, the number of ICT vacancies has significantly risen since 2019, indicating a growing demand for IT professionals. The following graph illustrates this increase in the number of ICT vacancies since 2019.

This situation leads to various challenges in filling ICT roles. A recent UWV study identifies the three main reasons for this mismatch: a lack of applicants, a shortage of the right skills, and the specialist nature of the vacancies. For more details, see the UWV factsheet of August 2023.

2. Missed Opportunities Due to CV Selection

IT professionals are often not known for their CV writing skills, resulting in missing out on top developers during the selection process. This represents a significant missed opportunity for organizations seeking exceptional talent.

3. Mismatches Burden Development Teams

When unqualified IT professionals make it through the selection, frustration arises within the teams. The time and resources spent on these mismatches press on development time, increase stress, and jeopardize deadlines.

Solutions

Our flexible business models, including Recruitment and Selection, Detavast, Secondment, and Remote, provide an approach that suits every company.

2. Clear CVs Bridge the HR-IT Gap
