IT Agency Recruiters
I’m transitioning into IT Recruitment and I recognize that specializing will likely be necessary.
I have a few questions:
-
What areas in IT should I focus on over the next 10-20 years?
-
Are there any specific fields in IT that I should steer clear of for any particular reasons?
-
Is there a specific IT field that is generally considered better to work in than others?
-
I’m looking for long-term specialization. Does contract work foster long-term relationships as effectively as permanent roles do?
