There has been increasing pressure on companies to implement their technological developments quickly and effectively. Adapting to these new needs, we have introduced flexible headhunting services.
According to an international survey published in March 2021, 83 percent of business executives expect to increase their IT investments in the next three years. Half of the participants of the survey want to spend at least 10 percent more on the digital transformation of their operations and business model than previously planned.
Meanwhile, the lack of adequate labour force has become the number one obstacle to development worldwide. In the technology sector, 84 percent of business executives plan to involve independent external professionals in their projects.
“From the viewpoint of competitiveness, it is a critical point to make the implementation of prioritised development tasks faster and more efficient. The demand for specialists trained specifically for a given task has grown significantly in Hungary, as well” said Anita Fachs, Head of Hungarian Operations at Green Fox Academy when evaluating the domestic situation.
On the other hand, labour shortage is a growing problem in Hungary, too. Since 2015, the number of vacant IT positions has tripled to 9,000, and by 2023, even 15,000–26,000 professionals might be missing from the Hungarian labour market.
“From startups to large companies, the biggest challenge for companies right now is to boost their adaptability. To support this, we launched our flexible headhunting services that provide junior developers for the short or the long term who are ready to jump in immediately” added Anita Fachs.
If required by our corporate partner, we prepare programmers in an intensive course for the technology used in the current project, thus significantly reducing the duration of the onboard training. Relying on our strong training base, we can also solve the need to replace a colleague or expand the project team in a similarly short time.

The success of digitalization also depends on the way a company can prepare its current employees for changing tasks. The development of the digital skills of the workforce is also a crucial point. Although the development of competencies is constantly on the agenda at technology-focused companies, according to the experience of Green Fox, the focus shifted in 2020 to the in-house training of senior professionals.
Last year, there was also a demand for mentoring services, which use the help of the leading experts and lecturers of the academy to reach the same level of knowledge within a developer team. This way, for example, the cost of a technology switch might also be reduced.
Would you like to improve the IT skills of your team? We are happy to help you!
While hiring new staff has been forced into the background for a while, companies returned to their pre-pandemic recruitment goals in late 2020, and now there is a strong demand for junior programmers again. After a temporary halt, the IT sector was among the first ones to gain new momentum, and this momentum is likely to continue in the upcoming years.

Krisztina fiatal anyukaként vágott bele a Hello IT! for Women programba. Jó adag elszántságra és kitartásra volt szüksége, hiszen nem csak édesanya, de egyetemista is egyben, mégis az elsők között végezte el a kifejezetten nőknek szóló alapozó IT kurzusunkat, ami az INCO Academy - Work in Tech programja keretében valósul meg. Mi a titka? Hogyan küzdött meg a mindennapi kihívásokkal? Erről mesél nekünk.

Csuzdi Gerda úgy érzi, most jó helyen van: rugalmas időbeosztásban dolgozhat, amit könnyen össze tud egyeztetni anyai teendőivel.

Evosoft Hungary Kft. is a leading IT company in Hungary which has a presence in our country since 1995. Today, they operate with nearly 2000 employees but the number is increasing every year. They have been cooperating with Green Fox Academy almost since the start of the bootcamp. Thus, they have gained great knowledge and experience not only on the tech side but the HR side as well. This time we talked about the effective onboarding process and the integration of career changers.
It is now widely known that empathy and communication are essential as a programmer. More and more employers are favouring candidates who still need to improve their technical knowledge but are strong in soft skills. But what soft skills should a programmer have and how much can these skills be developed? To what extent can the rise of ChatGPT and similar systems transform these expectations? We asked Annabella Ádám, psychologist at Green Fox Academy.
We believe that by providing up-to-date knowledge we can ensure our students' competitiveness in the labor market. That's why, during our courses, leading developers and recognized experts share their practical experiences with our students on several occasions, including Levente Szabados, an artificial intelligence expert.
