Lack of interesting roles in Austria? Over the past months, a lot of you within my network have been describing a real lack of interesting software & engineering job opportunities on the market across Austria. Why is this though? Here are some of your key reasons: ➡ "The same opportunities coming up time and time again from the same companies, which is a little off-putting". ➡ You simply aren't seeing the type of role you're interested in being advertised... solution below! ➡ "Lack of information up front e.g., the full technology stack, core responsibilities of the role, the company culture etc." ➡ "Too many buzzwords and a lack of meaningful context. Trying too hard to be flashy and actually missing the mark". ➡ Unclear application process! You much prefer a straightforward and transparent application process. ➡ Large number of applicants on advertisements are putting you off from applying. So, what's our solution? 💡 66% of the roles I'm currently representing are NOT actively advertised... 💡 We provide full transparency, and keep you informed throughout. 💡 Long lasting relationships to only share the most relevant roles for you. Reach out to me directly if you'd like to discuss your interests, and see what's available for you at the moment. ([email protected])

📈 The German technology industry experienced a 16% drop in new job postings in Q1 2024 compared with the previous quarter 📉 Last week, I came across an article commenting on recruitment signals in DE. I have to tell you that this drop in recruitment compared with previous quarters didn't really surprise me. All the clients I talked to are unanimous: 1️⃣ Now is the time to be cautious and the volume of recruitment (in tech and non-tech) is not what it was in 2021 - 2022 (no scoop so far). 🤓 By the way, as you can read in the article (the link is in the comments) that it's the big groups that are recruiting the most at the moment, because they're less sensitive to the ups and downs of the market. 2️⃣ With fewer job openings, there’s an influx of candidates applying to each position, increasing the workload for HR departments to filter through numerous applications. This heightened competition makes it crucial to find the right talent quickly and efficiently. 👆🏻I'm convinced that this is exactly where specialist recruitment services like talent.io can make a major difference. ⇒ We believe that by providing you with a curated pool of tech talent, you can save an incredible amount of time. Plus, we offer premium services tailored to fit even the tightest budgets, ensuring you get the best value for your recruitment investment. 👀 Do you have an opinion on the matter or do you share the feeling that you are drowning in the flow of incoming applications? — Hi! 👋 I'm Lilyana and you're +3,000 people who follow me for stories about how you can build the best tech teams in Germany. Let’s get in touch!

🚨 Your Employer of Record (EOR) in Germany Might Not Be Compliant 🚨 Compliance should be your top priority when hiring in Germany. Did you know that working with an EOR that doesn’t hold the AUG (Arbeitsnehmerüberlassung) licence can lead to severe consequences? Daily, I speak with clients that are thinking about hiring in Germany, or already have an EOR team there. Time and time again, it surprises me that other EORs won’t inform them about the required AUG licence and 18-month limit on the employment term via this model. Or worse, they tell us that their team is indefinitely employed in Germany via so called ‘consultancy’ or ‘solution’ models. Unfortunately, these do not exist in Germany’s legal labour leasing framework, and the only compliant way to lease employees to foreign companies is via a licensed AUG entity. Here’s what you need to know: 🔍 Audits and Inspections: Non-compliant EOR providers can be audited at any time by German authorities. If they fail to meet the strict requirements, your business could face serious repercussions: 💸 Fines: Fines can reach up to €30,000 per employee for both the EOR provider and the end client. 🚫 Sudden Job and Salary Loss: The German authorities can immediately shut down a non-compliant EOR. Imagine the scenario where your employee is suddenly left without a job and salary. ⚖️ Legal Actions: The day-to-day employer (your company) could face legal action from the employee due to being hired in a non-compliant way. This could result in costly legal cases, fines, and high severance pay. 💡 The Solutions: 1️⃣ Always ensure your EOR provider holds the necessary AUG licence to legally employ workers in Germany on your behalf, and do not exceed the 18-month limit without a 3-month break in employment. 2️⃣ Thinking about employing for longer than 18 months? We can help you register as a Non-Resident Foreign Employer (Ausländische Arbeitgeber ohne Sitz) enabling you to directly hire employees in Germany via a foreign entity (without a permanent establishment). At Omnipresent, we prioritise compliance in our EOR services and ensure all legal requirements are met to protect your business from unknown and unnecessary risks.

🚨 A Question for Agency Recruitment Professionals in Germany 🚨 In today's economic climate, it's understandable that many of us are playing it safe. The outlook feels uncertain, and loyalty to our current employers and teams often wins out over exploring new opportunities. Especially when you're on track for a promotion or deeply invested in the people around you, making a move seems daunting. But here's a question worth considering: When the market turns, where do you want to be❓ Do you want to continue fighting for every win, pushing hard just to stay on your current trajectory? Or, do you want to use this time to position yourself in a long-term home—a place that not only offers greater financial rewards, but also an environment that accelerates your career, supports your growth, and surrounds you with incredible people? 🚀 Some of our greatest success stories at Goodman Masson Deutschland are from people who seized the opportunity during market downturns—and were ready to ride the wave when the market bounced back. 🌊🚀 Now's the time to build your future foundation, not just weather the storm. 💬 I'd love to hear your thoughts: Are you focused on steady progress, or are you ready to take a strategic leap for long-term gains? What factors are influencing your decision to stay or explore new opportunities right now? Let's start the conversation. 👇 #Recruitment #CareerGrowth #Leadership #TalentManagement #RecruitmentProfessionals #Germany #CareerDecisions #FutureFocused #LifeAtGM #GoodmanMasson

Manager: Can you jump on a quick call tonight? We need to finalize the project. Employee: It’s 8 PM. I’ve already put in 10 hours today. Can’t we handle it tomorrow? Manager: I know, but with remote work, we all need to be a bit more flexible. The team’s counting on you. Employee: Flexible? I’m always logged in late, and my personal time has completely vanished. I thought remote work was supposed to help with balance. #worklife #jobsearch #remotework

🌟 Attention-worthy Questions: Through the Eyes of a Recruiter 🌟 As a recruitment consultant, I'd like to share some crucial points that we often encounter during the #candidate search process. Please pay attention to these: 1️⃣ "How much does this #position pay?": While #salary is an important factor, focusing solely on this may question the candidate's interest in the #job. 2️⃣ "What does your #company do?": Being knowledgeable about the company shows that the candidate is inquisitive and prepared. 3️⃣ "How much leave do you offer?": Besides leave, it's important to consider your job #responsibilities, as your #employer also has expectations from you. 4️⃣ "Can I work remotely?": The request for flexible working arrangements may question the candidate's commitment to the job, so it's important to adapt to the needs of the workplace. 5️⃣ "Can I change my schedule?": Requesting flexibility may affect your collaboration in the recruitment process, so it's important to demonstrate your readiness to adapt to the employer's requirements. Feel free to reach out to me when you need professional assistance. 📩I'd be happy to help you during the recruitment process. 🚀 #Recruitment #Career #ProfessionalConsultancy #london #hiring #recruiter #londonjobs #uk #ukjob

“What's the most challenging part of working with recruiting agencies?” That's what I asked in a poll earlier this week. The answer most chose was: “Sending irrelevant candidates” And I would also agree with that based on my experience as in-house recruiter. That is together with Laura we decided to record our last CareerBee Talks Podcast episode of this year on the topic: What Makes a Great Recruiting Agency? 🎧 Make sure to listen to it for practical tips on how recruiting agencies can add real value and help you find the best talent. Link is in the comments. 👇

🎯 3 Key Focus Areas for Building Long-Lasting Relationships as a Recruiter As recruiters, our role goes beyond filling positions. It's about building meaningful relationships with candidates and employers. Over the past  years in IT recruitment, I’ve discovered that these three focus areas make a significant difference: 1️⃣ Empathy in Communication: Understanding a candidate's aspirations and challenges builds trust. It’s not just about asking questions but truly listening to their story. 2️⃣ Transparency in Processes: Being clear about timelines, feedback, and next steps makes candidates feel valued and informed. For instance, when a candidate isn’t selected, delivering the message with kindness is crucial. Instead of saying, "You've been rejected," I prefer something like: "The team has decided to move forward with another candidate for this role. However, this does not take away from your skills and potential. Keep applying and growing—you’re doing great, and the right opportunity is ahead!" Encouragement can make a big difference. 3️⃣ Consistent Follow-Ups: Even after placements, staying in touch shows that you genuinely care about their journey. It strengthens professional bonds and creates opportunities for referrals. What’s your go-to strategy for building strong recruiter-candidate relationships?💭 #Recruitment #CareerGrowth #Networking #TalentManagement

Dear Network, Attracting and hiring this top-tier cybersecurity talent is no easy task, with demand for skilled professionals at an all-time high, the competition for top talent is fierce. This is where working with specialized headhunters at MAM Gruppe can be a game-changer. Access to a Hidden Talent Pool: The best cybersecurity professionals are often not actively looking for new roles. Headhunters have deep networks and relationships with passive candidates, giving you access to individuals who aren’t visible on traditional job boards or career platforms. Speed and Efficiency: Cyber threats don’t wait, and neither should your hiring process. Headhunters streamline the search process, quickly identifying the right candidates who match both the technical requirements and your company’s culture, saving you time and ensuring you don’t lose out to competitors. Tailored Recruitment for Specialized Roles: Cybersecurity is a highly specialized field, and it’s not just about finding someone with general IT skills. Headhunters who focus on cybersecurity understand the nuances of different roles—whether it's cloud security, network defense, or threat intelligence—and can match you with candidates who have the exact expertise you need. Reducing Hiring Risks: Hiring mistakes in cybersecurity can be extremely costly, both in terms of resources and security breaches. By working with headhunters who thoroughly vet candidates and understand your company’s needs, you reduce the risk of hiring someone who isn’t the right fit. In conclusion, when it comes to cybersecurity, settling for anything less than the top 10% of talent can leave your business vulnerable. Partnering with headhunters allows you to tap into this elite talent pool, making sure your organization has the expertise it needs to stay ahead of threats and safeguard your future. Please reach out to me! #CyberSecurity #Cyber #WomanDiversityinCyber #Technology
