The hunt is on, however, it's the software developers who are having the last laugh!There's no dearth of talent as far as software programmers are concerned. These programmers are good, really good! So much so that tech companies are going out on all fronts to lure only the best to work for them. Paying outrageous salaries is only the tip of the iceberg. They are resorting to newer tricks to woo programmers for clearly, software is the word of the day today. |
Companies looking to hire software developers have no choice, but to think out-the-box to lure them away from their existing jobs. Here are the current top tricks they are employing:
1. They don't want to be contacted through LinkedIn
Every other recruit is going the LinkedIn way, bombarding potential applicants like anything. It's the usual thing! How do you expect to grab eyeballs when you're doing the usual? Well, you stop doing it, rather you look for other ways to reach out and connect to software developers. Smart tech companies are those that avoid the LinkedIn road and go for websites where developers actually share their relevant work and work histories. Blogs, GitHub and StackOverflow accounts are only to name a few.
2. They want a lot of money
A recent study suggests that a whopping 78 per cent software developers would be more than happy to leave their current job if offered better salaries and other benefits somewhere else. Quite obviously, developers remaining faithful to their companies is a thing of the past, after all 'honey is where the money is!'. In 2013, salaries for software programmers reached record levels. The average salary nationwide for a software engineer is $90,000, as per recent estimates. According to recruiting site Indeed, the average salary nationwide for a software engineer is $90,000 as per recent statistics. However, these are significantly higher in the Silicon Valley where base salaries of $140,000 - $160,000 with bonuses and stock options are highly common.
3. They want to have fun
A company's work environment and culture are also high on the list for software developers. Reportedly, 52 per cent of them would happily settle for lesser salaries at a company with great work culture. To them work is an added burden when it is no fun!
4. They want to work on cool and interesting products and services
Well, a good work culture is evidently not enough bait for software developers. They want to work on cool and interesting products and services. A recent survey suggests that almost 51 per cent of software developers would eventually settle for lesser salary when provided with a particularly interesting product or service.
