IT developers and nurses among hardest PMET vacancies to fill in 2023: MOM

this is totally not true.

there are always yearly 4000 applicants for 400 govt training vacancies in banking IT developers.
similarly there are more applicants for govt nursing conversion programme.

the govt just needs to start a training programme for IT developers and nurses.
there will be at least 2 to 10 times of applicants from mid career professionals.

they are not filled because employers want to employ cheap foreigners instead of training locals for the vacancies.

this is a time bomb waiting to be exploded.

singaporeans keep saying that they cannot get trained for IT developers and nurses.

the PAP govt keeps saying that IT developers and nurses among hardest vacancies to fill

the govt likes to contradict the unemployed singaporeans.

It's true. I met my fintech friend the other day and he's asking where to hire developers in his company.

[Sharexchange]

Its true....1 nurse attend to 10 patients.

very easy.

ask your friend to check with IMDA and WSG on govt sponsored hire and train programme.
he can get at least 10 applicants for every 1 vacancy.

[forum456]

once the employers are willing to hire and then train, there will be no shortage of IT developers/nurses.
because the applicants will be more than the vacancies.

if the employers want only plug and play employees, there will always be shortages because
the trained people in the industry will never match the requirements of every company.

it will be a time bomb waiting to explode if company wants trained personnel but refuses to train new trainees.

My friend wants an experienced programmer leh, not those who have just attended a short course.

[Ola]

SG is so small and we have over- hired and overpaid

too many FTs for It for many years

[Symmetry]

IT Developers are out because more of them will be replaced by AI.  Maybe we will see those CECA PRs reducing by thousands in 2 years time.

also very easy to get experienced programmer.

if an experienced programmer earning $5K, your friend just needs to pay $6k to get him.
your friend must be expected to pay $1K or more to get the experienced programmer.

unless your friend can get help from PAP govt to import cheap foreign experienced programmers.

It's very easy for you say this and say that. Have you tried to hire an experienced programmer before? Dun just kpkb about govt hiring foreigners lah. Some jobs you simply can't get enough sinkies to fill them.

[forum456]

. Some jobs you simply can't get enough sinkies to fill them.

this is totally not true.

there are a lot of sinkies who want to fill the jobs but there are very few employers who want to train them.

I talked to people in IMDA and WSG on why there are so many applicants and so few vacancies and so few employers.

Isn't it obvious that as an employer you want to hire an experienced programmer. You mean if you're an employer you'll hire somebody who tells you that he can't do the job but you need to train him?

isn't it also obvious that you need to pay more if you want to hire an experienced programmer from his existing employer.

if you cannot afford to pay $1K more, isn't it obvious that you have to train own your programmers.

it is either you pay more or train your own.

Hello, when did I ever say that companies are not willing to pay for a good programmer? How come you're always assuming this and that?

summarize the above, experienced programmer are most valued in USA
young and overpaid ones are vulnerable to layoff.
As now AI is able to do some of basic.
