Businesses have a “rare opportunity” to hire scarce tech talent in the wake of mass lay-offs from the US giants Meta, Twitter and Salesforce and UK start-ups, the boss of a specialist recruitment firm has said…
Bet365, the online sports gambling business that is Stoke’s largest private sector employer, is also alive to the opportunities. Dan Myatt, who manages the recruitment for its 1,700-strong technology division, said: “It could free up some relevant skills. Companies like [Meta] have also extended the salary bandings quite dramatically. People have been highly paid for minimal years of experience so it could be a shock to the system from a recruitment perspective.”
