IrishJobs Forecasts Ongoing Talent Competition into 2024 Despite Softening Labour Market Trends
IrishJobs, a prominent recruitment website, forecasts that the competition for talent will persist into 2024, despite recent softening in the labour market. The platform’s data reveals sustained high demand for professionals in key sectors such as construction, engineering, and healthcare over the past year. With skills shortages prevalent across multiple industries, businesses are likely to face ongoing challenges in attracting skilled individuals.
IrishJobs emphasises the transformative impact of new developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and automation on the recruitment landscape in the upcoming year. Sam Dooley, Country Director of The Stepstone Group for Ireland, responsible for IrishJobs, underscores the pivotal role of technology in talent acquisition, urging employers to proactively adapt to innovation amid a changing labour market.
“With skills shortages across a number of sectors, taking a skills-focused approach to hiring can support more employers secure talent in the months ahead,” notes Mr. Dooley.
In addition to technological advancements, IrishJobs predicts that 2024 will witness a growing emphasis on employee experience as a critical factor for companies. The platform also anticipates a heightened focus on supporting age-diverse workforces, reflecting a broader commitment to fostering inclusive and diverse workplace environments.”
