Antal International IT News, Spring 2009
Posted in the Italy category on March 23, 2009
Siamo, per molte aziende, alla fine del primo quarto e vediamo sicuramente un rallentamento delle assunzioni nell’area ICT specialmente di profili di medio ed alto livello. Continua, invece, ad esserci una domanda per profili professionali “più junior” con retribuzione nel range tra i 25k – 35k euro, specialmente consulenti SAP e sviluppatori web, richiesti soprattutto da società di consulenza. Ed è proprio nel settore della consulenza che vediamo una domanda sostenuta ed alimentata dal fatto che le aziende clienti, non avendo spesso la possibilità di assumere o ampliare direttamente il proprio organico, si avvalgono della flessibilità che offre il consulente.

Assicurazioni: il settore è solido e si fa sempre più competitivo
Posted in the Italy category on March 23, 2009
In un momento in cui la crisi finanziaria riduce fortemente la fiducia dei consumatori, la responsabilità sociale delle imprese rappresenta un tema caldo anche per le assicurazioni che necessitano, soprattutto in questa situazione, di recuperare credibilità. L’obiettivo principale è quello di costruire strategie e politiche di responsabilità, e di rispondere a quella che è la loro mission fondamentale: garantire sicurezza, in tutti gli ambiti, dai danni al vita, al risparmio.

Focus su riorganizzazoni e trend nel settore Energie Rinnovabili
Posted in the Italy category on March 23, 2009
Nonostante la situazione finanziaria induca gli investitori stranieri ed Italiani ad una maggior cautela nelle scelte, la ricerca di professionalità in ambito manageriale nel settore delle energie rinnovabili non sembra ridursi rispetto agli ultimi mesi del 2008.
Il trend di inizio 2009 conferma che alcuni gruppi attivi nel settore solare fotovoltaico, di medio e grande livello, stanno internalizzando o pensando di internalizzare la produzione di celle e l’assemblaggio di moduli, per aumentare la qualità tecnica del prodotto e eliminare gli onerosi costi di approvvigionamento, già ben noti agli operatori del settore eolico.

Affari Legali ? IN – HOUSE !

Come vengono “pilotate” le imprese verso soluzioni che possano attenuare i rischi nel loro operare come soggetti economici ? Un’attenta e costante assistenza legale interna svolta dalla figura professionale del Corporate Lawyer è la soluzione.
Il braccio destro dell’imprenditore
Posted in the Italy category on March 23, 2009
Agli imprenditori che operano nel mercato attuale è indispensabile il supporto di professionalità specializzate per una moderna ed efficace gestione dell’impresa.
La massima attenzione agli organismi di controllo nazionali ed internazionali e all’informativa societaria amministrativa finanziaria non hanno portato i risultati sperati: Basilea II in Europa e Sarbanes Oxley negli States si sono rivelati meccanismi troppo fragili per prevenire il crollo finanziario.
Ecco perchè la funzione del Controller e quella dell’Internal Auditor diventano oggi sempre più importanti per la valutazione e l’analisi dei rischi finanziari e per l’introduzione di misure di controllo e trasparenza dei dati amministrativo/finanziari.

Risparmio e investimenti: i nuovi obiettivi del Private Banking
Posted in the Italy category on March 23, 2009
La crisi dei mercati e l’avvio di una recessione globale impongono agli operatori finanziari la necessità di rivedere le proprie strategie e le proprie modalità di gestione delle relazioni con la clientela.
La crisi della “fiducia” rappresenta la prima criticità da affrontare e risolvere. Appare imprescindibile un rinnovamento nell’approccio e nella gestione, un approccio che sia basato sulla “trasparenza” oltre che sull’efficienza.

Według obserwacji Antal International Polska, międzynarodowej fIrmy rekrutacyjnej, w biegłymrokudyrektorwbranżyinformatycznej mógł zarobić od30 do 50 tys. zł brutto miesięcznie, a osoba ze stażem poniżej dwóchlat nawet do 5 tys. zł. brutto. Zapotrzebowanie na informatyków różnych specjalności było ogromne, zwłaszcza że wielu reprezentantów tego zawodu wyemigrowało do krajów Europy Zachodniej, gdzie mogli znaleźć jeszcze lepsze warunki pracy i wynagrodzeń niż w kraju.
Talent w trudnościach się doskonali

Debata”Personelu P USil na temat efe tywnej rekrutacji najlepszych kandydatów i zarządzania talentami w uasach spowolnienia gospodarczego.
Specjaliści na czas zmiany:
Jedną z istotnych oznak spowolnienia gospodarczego w naszym kraju jest znaczne zmniejszenie liczby oferowanych miejsc pracy i wzrost bezrobocia. Warunki na rynku pracy znów dyktują pracodawcy. Czy dziś łatwiej im znaleźć i zatrudnić najlepszych kandydatów – prawdziwe talenty?
Artur Skiba: Zdecydowanie ten drugi – ta lent intel igentny emocjonalnie. Czas dużych zmian wymaga od każdego menedżera z jednej strony um i ejętności dostosowania s i ę, a z drugiej – stworzenia takiej atmosfery w zespole, w którym pracuje, żeby na twarzach podwładnyc h nie ma l owało s i ę jedynie przerażenie, ale żeby widzieli szanse, żeby rr ieli nadzieję, że będzie lepiej. W tym momencie kluczowe znaczenie ma tO,jak menedżer reaguje na zmianę. Nieodpowiednia reakcja menedżera na sytuację może być groźn i ejsza niż sam kryzys.
With more and more candidates turning to the web to find their next job, how are the online recruiters dealing with the deluge of CV’s?
Posted in the United Kingdom category on March 18, 2009
Phil Carden operations director at global recruitment firm Antal International believes time management at the moment is crucial and adds: “With the contraction currently being experienced by some markets job boards are becoming more heavily populated with CVs; however the high demand and short supply of the skills that Antal specialises in sourcing will be retained in the industry.
“For a recruiter who uses a job board it is now more important for them to be accurate and specific in their searches to avoid wasting time ploughing through reams of unsuitable candidates. To do this and avoid isolating potential fee earning candidates is a skill honed from industry and discipline knowledge.”
Phil also believes the benefits to a recruiter working in these markets are that they now have a greater candidate pool to work with who will have shorter or no notice periods, are more motivated and may be willing to take a lower salary and so are easier to place.
Spring has traditionally been a time of growth and optimism but this year things are different.
Posted in the United Kingdom category on March 17, 2009
Recruiter Antal is a player with its fingers well and truly stuck into foreign pies and chief executive officer and Antal founder Tony Goodwin – above right – has his own take on the current situation and says: “ I think it`s fair to say the whole industry didn’t feel the impact until September or October when it really fed through to the other sectors and disciplines in recruitment terms.

‘Hand picking tomorrow’s talent today’ – Globally – Don’t leave it until the last minute!!
Posted in the United Kingdom category on March 9, 2009
The first couple of months of 2009 have most certainly been interesting times to say the least! With an increase of redundancies and unemployment figures, along with a reduction in available positions, the UK recruitment market really is being tested.
Although there may be a slight ‘slow down’ in the UK we have kept very strong within the international markets. As you will read in this newsletter Antal International can offer the support and exposure to complete assignments others may find daunting and impossible. This of course is due to the geographical coverage and ‘tight knit’ community of Antal.
The rise and fall of the Secretarial Market!
Posted in the United Kingdom category on March 9, 2009
There is no doubt that many companies from the commercial sector are making redundancies and that secretarial support staff have been in the firing line! This said plenty of companies large and small are still replacing any ‘key’ leavers – in particular Senior PA’s to Board Directors or Office Managers and taking advantage of a wide supply of high calibre and available replacements
On the candidate side many PA’s and administrative staff are not being put off by the market slowdown and are still considering a move or life change that they may have been harbouring for years! This becomes more extreme as circumstances change, teams are shed and those left in the office take on the often punishing extra workload left by their contemporaries. Alternatively, if a PA who has been typically used to a demanding and fast paced role sees her workload shrink she will look at making a move and even when the market is slow there is always a market for good candidates!
Where is the solution?
Posted in the United Kingdom category on March 9, 2009
“Bring me solutions, not problems” is a phrase that former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was well known for using.
This can happen in many ways. A lot of my Clients have decided to use a contract solution on the form of somebody who is able to help, to guide, to solve. To keep the pace with the business, to stay ahead of the competition.
During my daily conversations with Contractors & Freelancers I get to know what kind of missions they have and what they do to solve the Client problems.
Expanding internationally in todays market.

Within the current economic climate in the UK, excluding the hiring trends of the larger “blue chip” companies,(who invariably are recruiting on some level) a diversification into the international market can often open avenues to business in the UK, coupled with the obvious benefits of recruiting in countries where business has not been so drastically affected by the recession. By sucessfully placing candidates on a global level, we can ensure the companies we work with will be interested in using our services locally when the time is right. Antals global network is a powerful tool, that when utilised correctly, can offer an unparelled degree of success in comparison with our immediate competitors.

Global experience will be on the top of the requirements
Posted in the Bulgaria category on March 9, 2009
“Now it is evident. The current crisis is not affecting employment all over, but rather is targeting some sectors and type of work. For sure banking and financial services are in the heart of this cyclone. Apart from that many nonskilled and manufacturing workers will be laid off.
Still there are needs for talents and they will become more and more specific skills in shortage. Global experience will be on the top of the requirements.
Global Survey Finds Bulgaria Significantly Reducing Its Firing Rates
A major new survey of hiring and firing trends in over 100 countries has found that Bulgaria has significantly reduced the number of managerial/professional staff being fired, despite the economic downturn.
According to the Global Snapshot report from international recruitment specialist, Antal, which surveyed employers in 107 countries around the world levels of recruitment in Bulgaria have changed dramatically since their previous quarter with hiring rates dropping from 89% to a low 28%. However, despite this large cut in the hiring of managerial and professional staff, the rate of current and future firing has dropped from a very high 49% to just 4% whilst none of the businesses questioned expressed an expectation that they would further reduce staffing levels in the coming quarter.
Czy recesja zabierze firmom paliwowym nie tylko klientów ale również pracowników?
Posted in the Biuletyny (Bulletins) category on March 9, 2009
Recesja na rynkach światowych powoduje, że klienci detaliczni coraz częściej tankują paliwo na stacjach oferującym niższą cenę, głównie tych przy marketach. Czy pogarszająca się sytuacja wpłynie jeszcze bardziej na obecne zjawisko odpływu utalentowanych menedżerów i specjalistów z branży paliwowej?
Global survey finds cautious but stable Chinese employment market
Posted in the China category on March 2, 2009
A major new survey of hiring and firing trends in over 100 countries has found that despite the fact that hiring levels are falling in China, they still remain relatively buoyant in comparison to those across Asia and the rest of the world.
According to the Global Snapshot report from international recruitment specialist, Antal, which surveyed employers in 107 countries around the world, recruitment is currently relatively strong in China with 43% of businesses currently hiring managerial personnel. This is expected to fall to 20% in the coming quarter but the number of companies letting people go is also set to decrease so the market still looks as though it will remain stable.
