Businesses will be looking for financiers and IT specialists

Economy

After 2011 when a real growth in the number of jobs vacancies was registered the first time following the crisis, in 2012, the trend would be maintained as well. Businesses will be looking to hire mostly financiers and IT specialists. This opinion was shared by the leading websites for recruiting personnel and HR companies.

According to Nadya Vassileva, Director General of Manpower, the specialists in demand are mostly financiers, analysts and accountants, due to the uncertainty of the economy. An apparent paradox, however, is that the sectors with the highest number of ads for job vacancies face difficulties in finding highly qualified employees. Deyan Sultov, Managing Partner at Buljobs.bg, said that highly qualified specialists are traditionally sought for the IT and Telecommunications sector and it is difficult to fill the vacancies in it because employers usually look for a number of professional skills. There are positions which generate more than 1,000 applications, while others such as those in the IT sector can hardly be filled according to the jobs.bg site. “It is difficult for employers to find highly qualified technicians, engineers, managers and IT professionals for their job vacancies, while job seekers are most numerous in the sectors Transport and Logistics, Manufacturing, Construction and Architecture, Trade and Sales and Restaurants and Food and Drinks,” said Deyan Sultov from Buljobs.bg.

Outsourcing will continue to develop in Bulgaria in 2012 and will develop in new directions, according to Jobs.bg. “Within months, a foreign company will step on the domestic market and will hire some 200-300 employees in 2012 alone in the field of accounting, finance, document management,” said Anna Dimitrova, Corporate Communications Director, of an Internet platform.
