Number of IT job offers drops 13% y/y in October

In the last month, Polish employers posted 17% fewer job ads than a year ago, totaling 256,500, according to a Grant Thornton study. The decline, attributed to ongoing high operating costs, especially in energy, transportation, and labor, signals a shift from the previously stable job market. Notably, the IT sector saw a 39% decrease in job offerings, while medical and physical labor professions experienced increases.

Grant Thornton suggests that sustained high costs are prompting some firms to consider reductions, impacting new recruitments. Though not a deep crisis, there's a discernible downward trend in job creation, reflecting changing employer sentiments.
