While companies focused on performance have always been selective about the quality of the people they hire, more companies are becoming creative about exactly what they are looking for. The unemployment rate means there is a lot of talent waiting, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that the talent available identically matches open jobs and corporate culture. Rather than searching only for “identical-to-the-job-description” skills, more companies are expanding their views and focusing instead on transferable skills). This approach can yield candidates who bring core skills, solid aptitudes and fresh perspectives—and that’s a combination that can drive performance and provide a unique competitive advantage.
While the market is hot in CDMA, it’s looking for skilled engineers in other applications as well.
Those whose resumes are clear, concise, and list current technologies, longetivity at past positions and can show excellent cost saving results are sure to get an interview. Salaries have dropped a bit, as there’s now more competition but there are also great jobs available. Most companies are looking to hire before the fall season and will now have budget approval, so get out there and make it happen!
