10 IT Recruitment Trends for 2023

Embracing the future: 10 game-changing IT recruitment trends for 2023.

bookmark

Remote Recruitment

Due to the pandemic and the shift towards remote work, companies will increasingly adopt remote effective recruitment processes to find and hire IT talent. This trend will require investment in tools and technologies that facilitate virtual interviews, remote testing, and other methods of remote evaluation.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

Automation will become more prevalent in recruitment processes with AI and machine learning assisting in candidate screening, interview scheduling, and other tasks, allowing for more efficient and effective recruitment processes and analysis of more candidate data.

Emphasis on Soft Skills

The demand for specific technical skills is likely to change as technology evolves. Employers will be looking for candidates with not only technical skills, but also soft skills such as adaptability, problem-solving, and communication skills.

Prioritizing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Companies will prioritize DEI in their recruitment and hiring efforts, removing unconscious bias in the hiring process, promoting diverse and underrepresented groups, and creating inclusive environments for all candidates and employees.

Increased Use of OSINT in IT Recruitment

Employers will continue to use Open-Source Intelligence tools and techniques to find the best candidates for their companies.

B2B Contracts

B2B contracts will become a growing trend in the IT recruitment industry as they offer greater flexibility, autonomy, and financial benefits for IT professionals.

Hiring Remotely

The adoption of remote work due to the pandemic has made companies realize they can expand their talent pool by hiring candidates from anywhere in the world, saving on overhead costs and promoting diversity.

Decreasing the Number of Recruitment Steps

Companies will streamline their hiring procedures to make them more agile and effective, saving time and money, improving the candidate experience, and increasing their chances of attracting and retaining top talent.

Salary Transparency

Companies will build trust with candidates and address issues of pay equity by being transparent about salary ranges and compensation factors, leveraging technology to collect and analyze data on salary trends and industry benchmarks.

Less Coding Tasks, More Pair Programming

Pair programming will replace coding tasks as an assessment tool for technical skills, teamwork abilities, and communication skills, promoting collaboration, knowledge sharing, and the development of more robust and high-quality code.

Data-Driven Recruitment

Data analytics will continue to play a significant role in recruitment. Companies will use data to track and analyze their recruitment efforts, improve their processes, and make more informed hiring decisions.

Social Media Recruiting

Social media platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook will continue to be a popular source for recruitment in 2023. Companies will use these platforms to engage with potential candidates, promote job postings, and showcase their employer brand. Social media recruiting will also enable employers to reach a broader audience and target candidates with specific skills and experience. Additionally, chatbots and virtual assistants powered by AI technology will become increasingly prevalent in social media recruitment, providing a more personalized experience for candidates and streamlining the recruitment process for employers.

Collaboration with Hiring Managers

Collaboration between recruiters and hiring managers will become even more crucial in 2023. Recruiters will need to work closely with hiring managers to understand their requirements and expectations for each position. This will ensure that the recruiters are sourcing the right candidates and will lead to better hiring decisions. Companies will invest in training their hiring managers on best practices for recruitment and provide them with the tools and resources they need to effectively manage the recruitment process. The partnership between recruiters and hiring managers will continue to be critical for successful talent acquisition in 2023.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with...​

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly. “
