There are sectors that have suffered for years from “the lack of qualified professionals”, among which profiles in the field of computing and telecommunications stand out (whose demand is growing at a faster rate than that of graduates), health professionals (more since the pandemic) and the technical profiles associated with the development of the industry, for this reason they have become some of the most sought-after professionals, according to an Adecco study detailing the profiles most sought after by companies by autonomous community.
The study indicates that, despite the unemployment rate of 12.9%, 53% of human resources directors have “problems” when recruiting talent for their company, a percentage that has grown 18.3 points percentages compared to the previous year.
The study points out that many of these profiles “enjoy what is technically called full employment.” But, beyond that demand at a general level, there are autonomies with their own characteristics in demand and contracting.
The workers most in demand by communities
This is the case of Galicia, where one of the profiles in demand plus two is that of a boilermaker, due to the importance of the naval and metallurgical sector, although the strong presence of the industrial sector also leads to the search for electricians or mechanics.
For similar reasons, in the Basque Country, the search for industrial profiles for the railway, metallurgical and naval sectors stands out, as well as technological professionals. In Asturias, the search for telemarketers and university graduates for shared service centers is striking, something that is due to the growing presence of both “call centers” and multinational companies that need these centers.
On the other hand, in Catalonia the profiles of human resources and digital marketing are the ones that are most in demand, while in the Valencian Community the search for technological profiles stands out, above all those specialized in the digitization of processes. For its part, in Madrid, the demand for banking and insurance profiles stands out, as well as for health and technological personnel at almost all levels in both cases.
