Labor Market Analysis for IT Jobs

Abstract

COVID-19 had a serious, negative impact on the economy, as a whole, and on the labor market. The situation has improved recently, but it is useful to map the changes in the labor market and current future trends. Many have lost their jobs, due to the crisis caused by the virus situation and many of them have not been able to get full-time jobs, for extended periods of time. In the technology industry, recruitment is increasing. These global labor market findings raise the question of the characteristics of the Eastern European IT labor market. In this article, the job opportunities are compared, in order to determine in which IT areas, the most job opportunities appear and how they relate to different fields of IT, as services, software development, telecommunication, appliances, electronics, human resources or vehicle manufacturing.
