Just IT retraction – Email Marketing Campaign

Just IT would like to apologise for the misunderstanding created by a recent email campaign sent out to our candidates on the 4th March 2010.

As part of a promotion Just IT is offering ‘Free MCDST’ training to all candidates that register on the NPP course before Monday 22nd March 2010.

Just IT would to like express the training is only Free for candidates who sign up for the NPP course. The email that went out did not show this clearly enough – I am sorry about this.

Just IT is committed to providing an excellent service to all our candidates and clients. We take all matters very seriously and feel that it is important for us to continue to improve the quality of our services.

Do you think you need to do the Just IT Training programme or do you think you have the skills to get a job straight through Just IT Recruitment?

Some candidates ask us whether they need to do training and work placement through Just IT Training, or whether they can get a job straight through into the market through Just IT Recruitment. Depending on your back ground it may be you don’t need any extra technical skills, you may have enough commercial experience and you may be good an interview skills already. If that’s the case then we will promote you straight to our clients and you can skip the training programme. Just IT Recruitment place people from £20-80K into the market and clearly if you have at least 6-12 months experience in the market and good technical certifications then we can act like a traditional recruitment company for you. If you are not sure whether you need to upgrade your skills or not, send us you’re CV and we will give you some advice. It’s free and you have nothing to lose!

In January there were 21 people who got jobs in technical / network support – fantastic news!

Although January can be a slow time for job opportunities it was fantastic to see so many people get their first job in the IT market after gaining the skills on the Just IT programme. The needs for these technical skills and commercial experience are greater now than ever before since it is such a competitive market. The recruitment team did particularly well to help 21 people into jobs and it’s a indication of how many great relationships we have with blue chip employers that take technical support people from us. In fact one company took 8 candidates in one intake so it’s clear that the skills people have after doing the Just IT Training programme give them an edge and make them sought after candidates. If you want to know more about what skills you need to get a job in IT then contact us.

Applications to Just IT Training are at an all time high

It has never been more important to ‘stand out from the crowd’. If your profile is the same as other candidates for a job then you are unlikely that you will be chosen. Very simply you need to have some skill that another candidate does not have, to give you an edge over them. That’s why we are having more applications than at any other time in out 9 year history. With a competitive market we find that we get over 300 applications for a job we advertise within 4 days and so if you don’t have a strong CV it is unlikely that you will be called by the agent or employer. With the Just IT programme behind you there is clear indication to the agency that you have technical skills like CompTIA A+, Microsoft MCP XP Professional, MCP Server 2003 and Cisco CCNA that other people have not got. You also have work experience working in a IT technical support that separates you from the crowd, so you have examples of how you have shown your skills in hands on work situations. You also know how to sell yourself into the role when an IT recruitment agency calls you because we give you all the skills to answer interview questions on the phone and face to face. In this market it could never be clearer that if you follow the Just IT Training and Just IT Recruitment solution you will have the skills to get your career moving forward. You will have an advantage against other people who are just not focused or committed as you to their career. So contact us for more details and a personal assessment of your suitability.

IT jobs market continues to grow

The IT jobs market remained buoyant in January despite some other sectors of the economy slowing down.

The number of full-time vacancies and temporary positions had increased back to 2007 levels by the end of last year, but all eyes were on whether the bounceback could continue.

According to the latest monthly job report by KPMG and the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, the IT sector performed well relative to other industries, displaying the fastest growth of permanent positions and the second highest number of temporary roles, just behind secretarial and clerical.

“The UK jobs market is continuing its journey back to health. Placements of permanent and temporary jobs have been rising again in January, although at a slower pace than a month before,” said Bernard Brown, partner and head of business services at KPMG.

Brown said confidence had returned to the private sector but the “starting gun for a public sector recession has only just been fired” adding to the forecast that the overall recovery in the employment market will be bumpy.
