Moving it out

OUTSOURCING IS becoming an increasingly appealing option for businesses looking to do more with less in the current economic climate. As companies lay off internal staff and replace them with outsourcing partners, there's also a knock-on effect for skills availability.

What the hell is it with local IT companies. Last year they were saying there is a skills shortage with 40000 jobs or something like that. But they never did advertise those 40000 jobs and if they really wanted to hire people they could have posted the jobs with the articles or somethng. It felt too much like they just didn't want to hire people are rather bring in labour from asian countries, or maybe they just don't want to hire or pay properly.

Now we are in the midst of a global crisis and there are lots of people who have been retrenched surely those thousands of jobs should balance it out. Now they say "we are getting too many CVs" almost like they are saying "Dont expect replies we are full"

This kind of thing has happened overseas where IT companies used various reasons to hire people from India for example. This is not the way to solve unemployment.

@metalcore: Reality check here, no self respecting IT company will advertise. No debate.

Its a who knows who world out their. The only way I could get in was to make friends and ask for work. Took less than 6 months to get a descent job. There are many jobs out there but you need to get some education and experience if only as a hobby.
