New England should see technology hiring

BOSTON — The New England states should see the most active technology hiring
in the third quarter, according to a recent survey by Robert Half International.
Twenty-two percent of CIOs plan to expand their IT departments and just 1 percent
anticipate reductions in personnel, according to RHI. “Companies focused on maximizing
their relationships with clients are making investments in customer relationship
management systems,” said Katherine Spencer Lee, executive director of RHI Consulting.
“As a result, there is heightened demand in the region for Oracle and Java developers
to provide front-end support for these systems as well as database professionals
to oversee implementation.”
