How Will Tech Hiring Evolve in 2024?

I'd like to think that tools and systems will evolve for better matching resulting in fewer needlessly-repetitive, low-knowledge-share interview processes. However, this is a really difficult problem to solve because the system can be gamed by any party involved.

And because we're used to over-promising systems being gameable, I think there is a distrust of adopting new ways which is a reinforcement of doing things the same old way.

I think change in this area is just a tough boulder to push uphill so I kind of expect "same old" in a period where that could become even more painful with the wrench of AI changing the nature of a lot of jobs and career paths. I'm of the mindset that there isn't an obvious "net job loss" that will occur, but titles and expectations will shift and until they "settle", things could be even more painful in the meantime.

My bet: Tech roles will become less specialized to specific technologies now that companies realize that engineers can do more with AI assistants.

Not only are engineers expected to do more in terms of productivity and speed, engineers will need to be able to work with more languages, frameworks and technologies (with the aid of AI).

Portfolios and product thinking skills will start mattering more going forward.

Many backend roles will likely suffer, while frontend roles, especially those that include UX skills will continue to grow.

There is an over-abundance of tools already.
The real issue are elsewhere : lack of training, economic pressure, lack of consideration, lack of training, people don't stay in the job, bad practices spreading faster than the good ones

By the way @ben and others, I was wondering if you can invite me to talk about it in a podcast ? :P

AI will play a more prominent role in the hiring process. Automated resume screening, chatbot interviews, and predictive analytics will streamline initial candidate assessments, allowing human recruiters to focus on more nuanced aspects of the hiring process.

Tech companies will prioritize creating a positive employee experience to attract and retain top talent. This includes offering competitive compensation, career development opportunities, and fostering a supportive work culture.

As we look ahead to 2024, the tech hiring landscape is poised for significant evolution, driven largely by advancements in AI and the emergence of new job opportunities. Companies will increasingly rely on AI-powered tools and platforms to streamline their recruitment processes and identify top talent more efficiently. With this in mind, IT recruiting agencies like StaffNow.pro by AI Data Solutions have a crucial role to play in helping businesses navigate these changes and connect with the right candidates. By staying ahead of the curve and embracing innovative recruiting strategies, StaffNow.pro can continue to serve as a valuable partner for companies seeking to build their tech teams in the ever-changing digital landscape.
