Vertex IT Solutions, the leading recruitment, training and placement firm for skilled professionals in the Information technology industry, recently announced that according to its research, the IT industry may finally be starting its recovery from the economic downturn. Results of their most recent Industry Insight survey show a positive outlook and an increased willingness to hire. The survey report identifies increases in hiring which may be a sign that the economy as a whole may be turning. Optimism regarding sales is on the rise which further fuels the willingness to hire.
According to the Head Recruitment Consultant at Vertex IT Solutions, “It is a very good sign that companies have started to hire talented individuals once again as essentially this signifies that the more people that are working, the more goods and services they purchase and hence the wheels of the economy start to rotate once again at high speed. Then the more people start to purchase goods and services (and pay mortgages), the more positive the feedback loop and a faster sustained growth. We are also constantly keeping an eye out and monitoring the negative news about the slowdown again which is predicted to happen at the end of 2011 because of the recent GDP contractions in the UK, USA and Japan. But positive news is critical at this time to help build economic momentum.”
He further added,” The most recent survey indicates more positive business trends such as:
· 70% of companies surveyed reported a profitable year so far. This represents an increase of nearly 23% increase over last year.
· The number of companies reporting a decrease in sales or no change remained approximately the same as compared to last year.
· The vast majority of respondents indicated that hiring levels will remain the same or increase.
