The Rundown
In the wake of a spate of high-profile tech layoffs, the market is awash with skilled, experienced developers. But hiring managers are still struggling to fill their tech recruitment pipelines.
Why?
There are many reasons, but here are some of the highlights:
#Inflation2022: as the cost of living soars, local compensation is following suit, reaching unprecedented levels.
#NotLooking: the Great Resignation, the Big Quit – whatever you want to call it, it’s given highly skilled people a lot of leverage. They need good reasons to consider moving.
#TooLongToHire: irksome, convoluted hiring and onboarding processes shouldn’t have survived the upheaval of recent years. Regrettably, they have, and they continue to stymie tech recruitment.
So where’s the good news?
Africa is brimming with dynamic, remote-ready talent. Around three-quarters of the continent’s engineering teams are already working remotely. About half of them want to work for global companies – and 38% of them already do. Hiring in Africa is the game changer you’ve been waiting for.
