Generally, which types of IT staff are most in demand?
It is the doers, rather than the managers, that are in demand – the indians, rather than the chiefs. We are finding it much more difficult to get work for project managers and project supervisors. There is a large chunk of middle managers who are really much better off staying where they are at the moment.
Who are the law firms currently recruiting?
The full range of network support and helpdesk people have the best prospects – 80% of the people we have placed recently have been helpdesk personnel, second- or third-level support staff or network specialists.
