Technisource Survey Finds Increased IT Hiring on the Horizon More than 75 percent of IT decision-makers are confident that their company will improve in the next six months (June 2, 2010) - More than three-quarters (78 percent) of HR managers or recruiters who have responsibility in recruiting technology positions are looking to hire IT workers in the next six months, according to the 2010 IT HIRE Intelligence Survey conducted by Monster.com, the leading global online career and recruitment resource and flagship brand of Monster Worldwide, Inc., on behalf of Technisource. In addition, the vast majority of respondents are confident that their company's performance will improve across the same time period. The combination of new hires that IT hiring decision-makers are projected to place bodes well for a continued job market recovery. Among the key findings:
"This new report clearly shows that the IT hiring picture is bright and there seems to be a need for large amounts of IT professionals over the next six months," said Michael Winwood, president of Technisource. "Many companies are not only starting to invest in projects that were previously put on hold, but also new technologies. To ensure these get implemented efficiently, companies need to invest in additional talent. We believe these key learning's could be contributing factors to the overall stabilization of the economy. It seems that the recessionary train of thought is changing - companies are clearly focusing on growth opportunities instead of basic survival mode." Methodology The Technisource IT HIRE Intelligence Survey was conducted online within the United States by Monster Worldwide on behalf of Technisource between April 16 and May 13, 2010 among a U.S. sample of 245 HR managers or recruiters who indicated they have specific responsibility to recruit for technology positions for their company or acting as an agent on behalf of another company. All sample surveys and polls, whether or not they use probability sampling, are subject to multiple sources of error which are most often not possible to quantify or estimate, including sampling error, coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments. Therefore, Monster feels the use of "margin of error" is misleading. All that can be calculated are different possible sampling errors with different probabilities for pure, unweighted, random samples with 100% response rates. These are only theoretical because no published surveys come close to this ideal. Respondents for this survey were randomly selected from among those who have agreed to receive communication from Monster, so no estimates of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.
