Dear all,

What are your thoughts on the below issue?

 

 

“If you were hiring electricians, would you expect them to be a dab hand at plastering, proficient at carpentry and a competent carpet fitter?

Probably not, so why do recruiters expect developers, sysadmins and other IT workers to have such a ludicrously wide range of skills?

Those working in the IT industry say job ads frequently demand a skillset so large or so specific that very few applicants can ever match up.”

regards,

 

Alex
