JOBS IN IT AND TELECOM - SITUATION AND PROSPECTS

The Bitkom sector is growing worldwide and is also creating more and more jobs in Germany. Experienced and specialized professionals as well as fully trained young professionals are in demand - there are currently around 82,000 vacancies for IT specialists across Germany (source: Bitkom). The shortage of skilled workers ensures that qualified applicants will have little difficulty finding a suitable position now and in the future.

Challenges in the industry

As attractive as the Bitkom sector is for employees, it demands ever greater flexibility from its workforce due to ever shorter innovation cycles. In addition, new technologies are setting enormous data streams in motion; in turn, the demands on IT security and the stability of network infrastructures are increasing along with the data volumes. As there are hardly any pure telecommunications or pure IT companies today, but instead complete offerings that are increasingly being developed (e.g. telephone and internet lines, cloud services, programming and software in one package), more and more specialists with a broad focus are being sought - from development to consulting and support to marketing and sales. Employees should have completed highly specialized training and at the same time have the most comprehensive knowledge possible of the entire Bitkom sector.

Potential employers

Many up-and-coming companies are currently offering jobs in the IT and telecommunications sector. In addition to industry giants such as Deutsche Telekom AG or IBM, smaller software companies, IT service providers and IT consulting firms also make up a large proportion. Career starters often find interesting jobs in smaller and regional companies in particular, as the activities here are often broader-based and therefore more varied. In addition, career advancement is often possible more quickly with the right aptitude.
