Here are the top six sectors that will be increasing recruitment in the next few years.

1.      Technology – In every country around the world technology is booming. The IT industry in India alone is projected to be worth USD $225 billion by 2020 employing 30 million people. This prospering trend will be mirrored in most other countries.

2.      Natural Resources – Oil and Gas, Energy and Mining are all flourishing and this sector has begun actively recruiting again after a notable decline in recent years. This sector recruits from both a degree and non degree level offering junior roles and training.

3.      Financial – Financial and Professional recruitment will thrive, in particular insurance, pensions and retirement advisors as the baby boomer generation retires creating positions.

4.      Health – The healthcare sector will see a dramatic increase in job vacancies due again to retirements and the generally aging populations in most countries. Home health care in the USA in particular is projected to grow with almost 300,000 jobs created in this sector in the last year.

These industries have assorted and varying requirements on the level of education needed to attain a position within these sectors. It seems that the established trend for recruitment in most of these industries will continue to be for candidates with degree level qualifications.
