16 January 2006
Around the world online recruitment had an ascending raise, from a market of approximately $ 300 millions in 2000 to almost 8 billion in 2005. The highest rate is owned by the United States, where 39% of the companies choose as recruitment method the internet; and "the big boys" (The Fortune 1000 companies) in a 90% proportion. In India it can be observed an ascending trend in using the internet as a recruitment method, in 2005, 10% of the jobs being placed online, as Nedelcu Bogdan the CEO of devseeker.in, a specialized site in IT personnel recruitment, declares: "We estimate that 10-12% of the jobs are generated online, from which 75% can also be found in other channels of distribution, like newspapers or recruitment agencies with offline activity. With the growth of internet usage it will be observed a raise of online recruitment rate, with the lost of newspapers and other ways of promoting. We expect this sector to grow and consolidate, going 10-13 percent higher in 2006". From the jobs published on the internet the higher rate, of approximately 25-35%, is found in the IT sector. Nedelcu Bogdan explains the reason: "IT companies know very well the capacity of the internet to distribute informations to a global audience and in the same measure the tech professionals can be found here. For example on DevSeeker.in, since it s launch in November 2005, most of those who register for leaving their resume are experimented people with a high IT professional preparation."
Slowly but surely, those who seek work will choose the internet, a fast and comfortable environment, which will help them in professional reorientation and development.
