"The fact is, there's a tremendous amount of work to get done, and CIOs are under almost unbearable pressures to get it right and make it quick. Without the authorization to hire enough full-time workers to meet these demands, not to mention the time it takes to find workers with specialized skills, they're looking to the IT services business more than ever before for help. Of course,
Office Standard, this has been driving some very healthy careers growth in this sector sector," said David Foote,
Office 2010, CEO and chief research officer at IT analyst firm Foote Partners.
"I don't want to overemphasize CIOs' dependency on contractors, consultants and managed companies. Indeed, they're also making key hires in many areas, but it's clear that demand for full-time workers outside the companies sector in particular has not obtained the kind of momentum that many analysts and pundits had been predicting this year."
Foote Partners' report noted that, based on the market analysis released last month concerning the IT employment market, volatility remains the dominant trend right now for IT skills as well as employment. Foote has been seeing 28 % to 38 percent volatility since early 2008 in its quarterly surveys of premium pay for certified and noncertified skills,
Windows 7 Code, which is defined as a percent from the 457 skills the company surveys that change in market value, up or down, every three months. The report noted typical quarterly volatility falls from the 14 percent to 19 percent range.
"Foote Partners has not changed its prediction from one year ago that there would not be a meaningful IT jobs recovery in 2010 and well into 2011, and then some," noted Foote. "Moreover, we remain convinced that the length with the tail on this staffing lag will be much longer than previous economic recoveries. A lot of the employment lost during this recession are not coming back because employers have changed their human capital investment models and practices. Instead of focusing on jobs, the accent is on skills acquisition. These skills can be acquired by buying them, renting or simply letting someone else do the task for you. Clearly it's the previous two approaches that are taking precedence right now."
