How to Find Java Programmers?

Image description

The demand for Java programmers is high in today’s market due to various reasons. Firstly, Java is a widely used programming language for various purposes such as desktop applications, mobile applications, web development, peer-to-peer applications, IoT devices, and game development. Secondly, the fact that Java has been the most popular programming language for years has led to many applications being developed in Java, which requires a large number of developers.

Employers require a large number of Java developers due to its widespread usage and high demand, which is not comparable to other programming languages such as Cobol, where the demand is not as high. Java is preferred by many companies and developers as it is a reliable and stable programming language. Though it has dropped to fourth place in the TIOBE index, its popularity is steadily increasing.

There are around 27 million software developers globally, of which 30% have used or are using Java. In Hungary, there are around 79,000 software developers, and 23,700 of them are estimated to be Java programmers. Although the number of available Java programmers is low, a considerable number of them are not actively looking for work, which makes it difficult for most businesses to find experienced professionals.

To find Java programmers, most businesses look for them in online professional communities, meetups, and online platforms. However, finding reliable and experienced Java programmers is not easy in such places. IT recruitment agencies or IT headhunting firms can assist businesses in finding Java programmers. Bluebird, which specializes in IT headhunting in Budapest and Vienna, can assist by recruiting the necessary IT skills and a large network of IT developers. They also offer IT staff augmentation where the required Java programmers are recruited and work on the project on a set period of contract.

To get the right Java programmers for a business, it is crucial to determine the specific technology skills or domain knowledge required to fill the position and to check that the salary range being offered is competitive with the market. Businesses can request a quote from Bluebird’s “Request for offer” page, and their IT recruitment solution is success fee-based. In IT staff augmentation, businesses will be billed monthly for the number of days the Java programmers spend on Java development tasks, with no success fee or other fees.
