Growth and recruitment in the software industry: Optimize with software consulting!

Need a hand in your software project, pronto? Sometimes the need for an expert comes in suddenly, and there is not much time for a thorough recruitment process. Or maybe, you only need help for a fixed amount of time, and don’t want to waste it searching for the right person to help you. You might also need an expert with a very specific skill set, and trying to find that person to recruit can be a very time-consuming process.

The software industry is growing

According to Statistics Finland, 98 % of companies at least have their own website in use, and in Gartner’s recent forecast, IT spending is expected to rise in 2024 by 6,8 % from 2023. So, even though last year was difficult for the IT sector, growth is expected for the current year. It is important to prioritize software endeavours, in order to stay up to date in the future.

According to a pulse survey conducted by Software Finland, 80 % of companies in the software industry expect growth in revenue in 2024, and 47 % expect to hire more personnel. These figures are lower for all small and medium-sized companies, according to a report by Suomen Yrittäjät: 31 % expect revenue growth, and 12 % expect to hire new personnel. So, even though the biggest peak of the software boom might be in the past, the sector is still spearheading growth in Finland. Here at Marvel Consulting, we expect around a 50 % growth in 2024. This is why our mission is to help all companies become Software Companies: so they can also benefit from the same growth opportunities!

Recruiting processes often take a month or two to complete, and that timeline can be even longer when looking for highly skilled expertise. It can be difficult to get applicants at all — or, contrarily, it can take too much time to sort through all the applicants by yourself.
