ManpowerGroup Report Record Hiring for Q4 2021
Strong national uptake of vaccinations helps boost the national Outlook to record high of +34% in Q4Manufacturing & Logistics sectors lead the way for the national resurgenceDemand is outstripping supply as 72% of employers report they are struggling to fill rolesDUBLIN, 14 SEPTEMBER 2021 DOWNLOAD THE Q4 IRELAND EMPLOYMENT REPORT HEREEmployers across Ireland anticipate the highest level of hiring in 17 years, for the fourth quarter according to the latest ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey. The Net Employment Outlook stands at +34%, the third strongest in Europe, behind France +37% and the Netherlands on +40%. A wave of optimism has washed over the Irish labour market with the strong uptake of vaccinations and removal of lockdown restrictions. The powerhouse behind this positivity is the manufacturing sector - up 53 percentage points from the previous year to +39% for Q4 2021.The ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey is based on 420 employers in Ireland. Employers were asked whether they expect to increase, reduce or keep the same number of employees in the workforce. This quarter a record breaking 47% of employers reported intentions to increase their headcount in the coming quarter. The ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey is the most comprehensive forecast employment survey of its kind.“There is a continued sense of optimism among employers across Ireland as we head into the fourth quarter of the year,” said John Galvin, Managing Director, ManpowerGroup Ireland. “As the severe COVID-19 restrictions have eased and the majority of the adult population is now fully vaccinated; we’re getting back to business as usual, and in many cases, organisations are planning for growth. This is great for workers as business confidence returns and employers hiring plans are boosted.”Galvin continues: “Hiring intentions in the capital have shot up as we head into the end of the year, rising above the national Outlook at +39%. The green shoots we predicted in the spring time have bloomed as we see the retail, hospitality and other hard hit sectors, which faced the brunt of lockdown, come roaring back. This represents a promising sign for continued growth in hiring for Ireland as the regional economies tend to follow in Dublin’s footsteps.”Similar to Manufacturing, the Other Services sector which includes Transport & Logistics is also poised for headcount growth, with the Outlook rising to 39% for the coming quarter. The Retail sector also intends to hire significantly, bouncing back with the promise of continued government employment supports for the industry remaining in place until March 2022. Elsewhere, the Finance and Business Service sector remains strong, up ten percentage points on last quarter to +20%. However, the Construction industry is hit by limitations to supplies and hiring plans have contracted 19 percentage points from last quarters record high, yet the employers in the sector remain optimistic with a hiring Outlook of +20%.Galvin continues “Ireland’s Manufacturing industry is recovering extremely quickly, with the highest bounce in hiring demand year-on-year of any sector. As an industry, Manufacturing was hardest hit in 2020 as lockdown restrictions and delays in raw materials stalled hiring throughout the year. Now the industry is steaming ahead to fill a back-log of orders which have built up over the last 18 months. As a result, we are seeing this sector performing above pre-pandemic hiring levels and seeking to lay strong staff foundations for growth as businesses are keen to prepare for the end of 2021 and beyond.”Galvin adds: “With increased hiring intentions across all industries in Ireland, employers are continuously asking how will we fill these roles? As the labour market heats up we continue to face an acute talent shortage as we head into the final quarter of the year – currently 72% of employers are struggling to fill roles. Following 18 months of uncertainty which saw fewer migrant workers arriving in Ireland, coupled with changes in demands from what workers want– the growth of hybrid working, and more flexibility become big factors. This leaves us with a talent gap where employers need to be investing in upskilling and retraining programmes now as long-term solutions to filling roles – it’s encouraging to see 40% of employers in the survey offering skills development as part of their talent attraction and retention strategies.”Irish Hiring Plans by Industry Sectors, Regions and Organisation Size:Nationwide, employers in all industry sectors report positive hiring plans for Q4 2021. Across sectors the Outlooks are reported as: Other Services (Public & Social, Transport, Storage & Communication) (+39%), Manufacturing (+39%), Wholesale & Retail Trade (+31%), Finance and Business (+20%) and Construction (20%).From a regional perspective, the results show that employers in Dublin are reporting positive hiring intent for Q4 with an Outlook of +39%. Elsewhere, employers report Outlooks of +44% in Munster, +23% in Leinster and +11% in Connaught.Larger-sized organisations (250+ employees) are reporting the strongest hiring confidence for Q4 with an Outlook of +39%. Medium-sized organisations (50-249 employees) report a positive Outlook of +29% and small-sized organisations (10-49 employees) also report a positive Outlook of +21%.DOWNLOAD THE FULL IRELAND EMPLOYMENT OUTLOOK REPORT HEREDOWNLOAD THE FULL GLOBAL EMPLOYMENT OUTLOOK REPORT HERE

Why We Need to Renew, Reskill and Redeploy Talent
We’re in the midst of a Skills Revolution. Technology is transforming organisations, in-demand skills are rapidly changing, and organisations can’t find the talent they need. At ManpowerGroup, we’re committed to being part of the skills solution. We do this by conducting market research, embedding workforce strategies and running training programmes that progress talent. Skills Revolution Reboot: The 3 Rs – Renew, Reskill, Redeploy is our latest report in the Skills Revolution series, for which we surveyed 26,000 employers in 43 countries to understand how organisations are recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re facing one of the worst talent shortages in Ireland out of any country in our survey, with three-quarters (or 77%) of employers finding they can’t find the right people to fill roles. This skills gap has accelerated as a result of the pandemic; sadly there has been a great deal of new entrants to the jobseekers’ market, and not all with the right skills to meet the needs of a post-pandemic workforce – many people are not equipped with the right skills to meet the challenges of today, while organisations aren’t attracting and developing the skills they need the most. There is an urgent need for employers to renew, reskill and redeploy their workers. Contrary to popular belief, digitisation is creating jobsPropelled by the pandemic, many organisations are focused on digitising and automating their operations at speed and scale, with many of those organisations feeling optimistic about recruitment too. In Ireland, more jobs are being created than eliminated, with 84% of those intent on automating also planning to increase or maintain their headcount – these are typically larger organisations of 250+ employees. However, 61% of Irish employers said that the pandemic has had no impact on their plans to digitise and automate. Most of these are smaller organisations who have also scaled back their hiring plans. Given that the World Economic Forum reported that by 2025, humans and machines will split work-related tasks 50:50, those smaller firms may start to lag behind and struggle to compete for customers and talent. In-demand skills are transformingAlongside the progression of organisations’ technical capabilities, the skills most needed are rapidly transforming too. The recent shift to remote working means soft skills like collaboration, communication and adaptability are in highest demand, yet only 22% of Irish organisations are investing in soft skills training. These employers report that identifying and developing soft skills is far more challenging than teaching technical skills. And although technical skills count for a lot, it’s these human skills that build employability and resilience over the long term. But companies are recognising the importance of continuous learning and the need to equip their workforce with learning opportunities, enabling them to embrace new tasks, remain resilient in times of change, and respond to the needs of today and tomorrow. Not only that, but training initiatives will support an employee’s appetite for learning and development – they want easily accessible and relevant content. Becoming part of the solutionWithin the last year, redundancy rates rose faster during the pandemic than they did in the 2008-09 economic downturn. Those people have talent, experience and skills to offer, but they may need some of their skills renewing or redeploying to re-enter the workforce. That need for skills development also holds true for employees unaffected by the events of the last 12 months: they too need to be continually learning to meet the challenges of an ever-changing landscape. Helping people to upskill and reskill for in-demand roles remains the defining challenge of this decade. It was important before the pandemic and even more critical now – to create a better and more equitable workplace where everyone is able to unleash their full human potential. Jonas Prising , Chairman and CEO, ManpowerGroupWhen skills needs are changing faster than ever and talent is at a premium, organisations need refreshed talent and workforce development strategies to attract, develop, engage and retain the best talent in this next phase of the Skills Revolution. As we emerge from the pandemic, we’re calling on more employers to Renew, Reskill and Redeploy workers. DOWNLOAD THE LATEST SKILLS REVOLUTION REPORT HERE

Stack It Up: Tech Skills in Demand
Digitisation is changing the old work order. The pandemic has pushed all businesses online, so nearly every company is now a tech business and companies can no longer afford to avoid pursuing a strong digitisation strategy. The Tech Revolution has gathered incredible pace – 38% of organizations have accelerated their digitisation as a result of the pandemic and 86% of those plan to increase or maintain their hiring levels as a result. The companies digitising most are leading job creationAt the same time, acute skill shortages continue – in cloud, cyber security, system and software engineering, software development, data analysis and more. Nearly two-thirds (64%) of companies globally acknowledge their current workforce lacks the skills required to implement digital transformation strategies and capitalise on growth potential.Companies must develop sophisticated, competitive workforce strategies to ensure they have the specialised IT talent that their organisation needs. New skills are emerging as fast as others are declining. Demand for cloud native developers, experts in containerization, security architecture design, machine learning and AI already outweighs availability. Nearly two-thirds (64%) of companies do not have the skills required to implement their digital transformation strategy and capitalize on growth potential.The latest whitepaper in the Experis Insights series, ‘Stack It Up: Tech Skills in Demand’, is now available for download and will help demystify what is currently being seen in the market, as well as the changes companies are looking to make by 2025 to accelerate digitisation.DOWNLOAD THE EXPERIS TECH INSIGHTS REPORT HERE

Why Organisations Should be Focused on Sophisticated Transformation in 2021
As digital capabilities expand, attracting and retaining talent has become increasingly complex for any organisation. Now workforce management will become more tech-driven, on-demand and responsive to global trends. Organisations that wish to remain ahead of the curve and an employer of choice need to become more sophisticated in how they approach workforce development and talent management. Below are a few ways organisations can adapt to the changing landscape and lead with action. Talent management for remote workCompanies now have an opportunity to turn remote working into a competitive advantage. As more employees expect the flexibility to work remotely, organisations who re-think their business models and consider training and upskilling their employees in a variety of areas including technical skills and software could be well positioned to attract top talent. According to a July 2020 McKinsey report, organisations need to create the foundation for long-term remote work, revamping upskilling approaches and adopting an agile approach to strategic workforce planning. Remote working is here to stay, and it’s time to build new management processes fit for purpose. Demand for assessments and solutionsBy utilising meaningful data, organisations can better predict performance, skills knowledge and overall job fit for individuals. Assessments like ManpowerGroup’s proprietary SkillsInSight™ Assessment help people identify their strengths and work preferences while also helping organisations to match the right person for the role. These insights support talent decisions, reduces talent acquisition costs and improves employee mobility by aligning the right capabilities and potential to the organisation’s skills gaps. You can discover more on this offering and its benefits Here. Improving supply chain resilienceAs we saw with supply shocks from the pandemic, supply chains can be vulnerable unless companies work to better approach uncertainty and manage risk. In the future, it will be essential for organisations to create connected supply chain ecosystems that include aggregated suppliers, satisfied users, and amplified networks. If and when another crisis hits, organisations need to have a more sophisticated system to prepare for supply chain shock and diversity their mitigation strategies, as well as have the right technology, systems and talent in place to reduce risks and respond to threats. Renewed demands on leadersLeadership has always been important, but it is at an even greater premium as organisations navigate months of a crisis and look to emerge stronger. The global economic, political and social turmoil that has resulted because of the COVID-19 pandemic has put increasing pressure on global leaders to lead with empathy and digital agility, champion social justice and climate action regardless of sector, and help usher in recovery and sustainability. No small feats on their own, together these goals will take masterful leadership to achieve. As organisations look ahead, the constant will be that business will continue to evolve and require a sophisticated response demanding resilient leadership, technology, and solutions.

Recent Trends in the Digital Tech Employment Market
Although we are more than halfway through 2021, the pandemic continues to dominate the news, the economy and how we live and work – and the digital technology employment market is no exception. As their focus was understandably diverted to continuity, they shelved any non-essential projects and plans, which had a big impact on the demand for digital tech. Over a year later, this is continuing to impact the jobs market. Here are some trends we have seen in recent months:Businesses are adapting, and digital transformation is coming back online: both planned strategic development and new projects in response to the dramatic operational changes that have been brought about by the pandemic. To support this, there’s been huge growth in demand for digital technology expertise. This has really highlighted the skills gap, which pre-dated Covid. It’s now bigger than ever, so businesses are turning to interim / contractor resources to help them deliver their projects, and that means that jobseekers have enjoyed a boost to the available jobs – a huge change from this time last year. Clients are increasingly looking to open source technologies, due to the flexibility and variety of technology that is available to them: Kotlin, Python and PHP (and its surrounding frameworks) are in particular demand. Meanwhile, React is continuing as the leading JavaScript framework – and we are hearing more about low-code / no-code too, so watch this space. The biggest shift? More choice for both candidates and employersAlong with the increase in developer jobs available generally, candidates can now also consider roles that were previously out of reach due to geographic limits: despite lockdown restrictions lifting, many developers will continue to work from home day-to-day, coming in only for key project meetings and workshops, which opens up jobs to a much wider pool of candidates. The flip side of this is that employers are now able to draw upon a much wider pool of potential candidates, so they can demand and really drill down to find the exact set of skills for their needs, including more UX / end-user experience and soft skills – and this is most notable in the contractor market. As leading specialist recruiters in digital, Experis is uniquely placed to help our candidates to understand where the market is going and help them prepare themselves for the future. In our related blog, we looked at recent trends that we’ve seen in digital technology employment – here are our predictions for the coming months, based on what we’ve seen and heard from our clients and candidates: Projects are coming back online after being put on ice due to Covid, so there are a lot of roles to be filled, and candidates have more choice. To get the people they need, businesses will need to put candidates through the recruitment process much more quickly, or face losing valuable talent. For instance, technical tests will increasingly become a thing of the past, while the candidate’s interaction with the business will grow in importance. Specialisation is becoming increasingly important in digital. While there will continue to be more scope for a broader range of skills in the perm market, contractors need to add specific and great value for projects with particular technologies, so generalists are becoming less marketable. React has been continuing as the dominant JavaScript framework, so it’s a good area for developers to explore, as well as open source technologies Coinbase has gone public, showing that blockchain technology is here to stay. We anticipate these skills becoming increasingly desirable – already we’ve seen more candidates doing personal projects to prepare themselves. Low-code / no-code makes developers’ lives easier, so we believe that companies will increasingly adopt this more efficient approach to development. How to stand out in the market as a candidateThe job market is very different now compared with the pre-Covid landscape: homeworking will last long after lockdown (if not forever), judging from the number of our clients who are moving to a more ‘hot desk’ approach to their office layout. As a result, digital candidates can now go for jobs much further afield, which opens up great new opportunities. However, since employers can now also benefit from a much wider pool of potential candidates, they are demanding more from successful candidates and can drill down to find the exact set of skills for their needs. Because you’re now competing with many more jobseekers, it’s now critical for employers and recruiters alike to find you among the sea of applicants. Specialist experience and expertise is king for candidates!We can’t overestimate the importance of specialisation: be it .NET, front-end vs back-end vs full-stack… it’s important to know your niche and demonstrate it: Your LinkedIn profile, CV and job applications / need to be very targeted from the start: use specific keywords that are in line with what recruiters and employers are likely to search for. To ensure your key skills stand out, don’t bloat your LinkedIn profile with a lot of ‘generalist’ skills, experience and attributes – and avoid broad statements like ‘Experienced Developer’ in your title and professional summary as you will likely be passed over. Lengthy, non-specific summaries and profiles make it harder for you to emerge prominently when employers are searching and sifting for specific technologies and experience. Employers are now looking for evidence of more of the CX/UX soft skills and experience as well, so make sure to highlight these if you can. Finally, in this evolving and challenging market, don’t go it alone. The best thing you can do to get the edge on the competition is to partner with a recruiter who will work to get you the best result. Take time to find the right consultant for your career development, make an effort to communicate your value to them. If they are confident in putting you in front of clients and enjoy working with you, they will go the extra mile for your success.

Keeping Your Workforce Modernised in the Skills Revolution
To stay ahead of the competition and hire the best quality candidates for your roles, job location and remote working are now key considerations to factor into your recruitment strategy.
