In IT companies, the job market is particularly tight: recruiters are finding it increasingly difficult to find skilled tech profiles. In the face of these major shortages, Body Shopping is proving to be an extremely interesting solution: find out how it can help you find the skills you need easily, so that you can bring all your projects to fruition under the best possible conditions.
Why is it so hard to find talent in tech?
There are computer science schools in many towns and cities, and more and more people are interested in these professions: so why is it so complicated to recruit in tech?
In concrete terms, while there are many more people trained in IT professions than there were 10 or 20 years ago, companies’ needs are changing. And increasingly, companies are finding it difficult to find profiles that perfectly match their needs.
For example, there are not enough cloud and cybersecurity engineers to meet the demands of businesses, nor are there enough DevOps or data experts (analysts, architects or engineers).
Schools are lagging behind in terms of training: too little is being invested in more recent fields such as artificial intelligence… even though this is a priority and a major area of development for a large number of IT companies.
Tackling the talent shortage with Body Shopping: explanations
Body shopping refers to the provision of talent for a company. In concrete terms, you call on a service provider like Luxfactory, an expert in IT consulting, and you detail your needs.
Your service provider then selects the highly qualified consultants best suited to the project and places them directly with your company as external consultants. Thanks to this practice, you can exploit the potential of people who are specifically qualified for your needs, without having to go through the recruitment process…
A wide range of skills at your disposal
Luxfactory relies on a multi-skilled IT team, capable of intervening on a number of strategic issues such as :
- Move to cloud projects, with Microsoft 365 or Azure ;
- Support (computer and laptop maintenance, software installation) ;
- Cybersecurity Security Engineer.
More flexible access to resources
When you recruit, you need to draw up an employment contract. While it is possible to offer fixed-term contracts for temporary assignments, you don’t have as much flexibility as with Body Shopping.
Our consultants are on site full-time for a fixed period, either for a one-off project, a peak in activity or for medium- or long-term support. If your needs increase at a given time, it is entirely possible to call on an additional consultant. Conversely, if you no longer need as many resources, Luxfactory can relocate consultants to another customer.
In this way, you spend money according to the pace of your work and the evolution of your needs, and your budget is better controlled than with internal recruitment, which is much more restrictive.
Your projects don’t have to be blocked by a human resources problem. If you’re having difficulty recruiting, turn to a company specialising in Body Shopping, which will be able to provide you with highly qualified profiles. You can also rely on its expertise to support you and help you develop: Luxfactory, your digital and digital partner, offers you a wide range of services to facilitate your digital transition, improve your productivity and help you stand out from the competition.
