Partner Series | ENEX France RH Performances, Your French Partner for Successful Recruitment

In our ongoing ENEX Partner series featuring our global firms and the people behind, we now turn our spotlight to HILL International Romania. <h3>Adapting to Change: Insights into Romania's Evolving Labor Market</h3>We are pleased to speak with Anca Raican, who offers her expert insights into the dynamic economic landscape and labor market trends currently shaping Romania.<h3>How would you describe the current economic situation and the labor market in your country?&nbsp;</h3>Change, transformation, fluctuation, and (im-)migration could be said to have been portraying Romania over the last few years, both when dealing with the economic situation and the labor market. The pandemic has significantly reshaped businesses, the market, and job demands, and currently, we are in a continuous process of redefining, rewriting, and adapting to the new normal, which is constantly transforming and becoming each day’s new reality. The GDP is expected to grow by 3.3% currently and 3.1% in 2025. The aging population is increasing, while Generation Z is emerging more prominently. We are fortunate; Romania has a strong population mastering foreign languages, sometimes with a mix not easily found, enabling the younger generation to easily access preferred opportunities for entry-level roles (the call centers/BPO businesses still rank in the top three; these are, for many of them, a stepping stone for the development of a successful professional track and open doors to a wide range of industries). The generation gap is present, and organizations are in the process of adopting the most appropriate plans for securing sensitive lines of management; thus, more and more outstanding opportunities will address youngsters for succession planning programs. 2024 is marked by the continuous necessity of coping with uncertainty, and the overall global context will surely influence 2025 as well.<h3>What are the main characteristics of the labor market in your country?</h3>In a nutshell:<ul><li>Enhanced population aging process (nevertheless common to all of Europe), accompanied by the scarcity of youngsters in the job market</li><li>Currently, three generations are active and coping with the challenge of working together</li><li>Romania ranks globally among the first 20 countries regarding population migration; the attraction and “adoption” of non-EU labor force is becoming more and more not only a necessity but a practice to cover mainly unskilled workers</li><li>Accelerated business automation and digitalization are reshaping the required competencies</li><li>Employment opportunities: Public vs. Private/Corporate – Public institutions are quite attractive</li></ul><h3>How do you currently view labor mobility regarding people in your country?&nbsp;</h3>Increased mobility has changed the workforce market across Europe, and now it is happening at every workforce level. For Romania, the first impact was felt in blue-collar roles, but now challenges arise at all levels, with a special focus on highly specific technical roles. It could be said that labor mobility occurs internally within the country, as well as externally between EU countries; therefore, recruitment and selection are becoming more global and creative, regardless of where the opening exists.<h3>How are employers responding to a shortage of employees with the right skills and qualifications?</h3>It is becoming more of a "walking on thin ice" approach, as the shortage of well-qualified people impacts almost all organizations, and companies are more or less addressing the same pool of potentials. The topic covers multiple facets (some of which require resources, both human and financial investments) that vary from one company to another. We can talk about the "attractiveness and visibility" of the employer in the job market, employer branding actions, the Employee Value Proposition (EVP), organizational culture, salary, and benefits, etc. Solutions could be identified; what is relevant is how efficiently they can cover an existing, concrete situation. Constantly screening the market, investing in potentials, reconversion programs, and adopting more inclusive hiring policies (e.g., for employees aged 45+) might contribute. At the same time, the response time during the recruitment process needs to be significantly shortened, as promptness in providing feedback to appropriate and interested candidates becomes crucial for the decision-making process on both sides.What trends characterize working conditions and corporate culture in your country? What motivates a manager/employee to change jobs?When it comes to the motivational pillars, it’s not easy to present a common response. Nevertheless, the higher the role and the more sophisticated the seniority level - mainly in top and senior management positions - the more attractive the opportunity to manage teams—not necessarily larger ones, but being empowered to drive the organization to the next level. On the other hand, when it is about specialists - and now we are talking about a candidate-driven market - they are at stake as everyone is competing against the same limited pool of good professionals. The processes are triggered mainly by salary and the compensation and benefits package (which has become increasingly "creative," complex, and sophisticated, with the freedom to change between perks within certain limits). Mental health support as a benefit has gained significant ground over the last few years, along with work conditions. Of course, professional development is also important, but it seems to rank lower in priority.As HILL International in your country, what is your contribution to making companies more successful?First of all, “Chapeau bas!” to the HR consultancy role, to the job itself, as it is about facilitating direct connections and rapport with really fascinating people, some of them leading professionals and personalities in their fields of activity - relationships that we build to last over time. Touching on this point, it is to be mentioned that we’ve witnessed, in more than 30 years of presence in the Romanian market, the entire chain of market development. Being locally present quite soon after the 1989 Romanian revolution, it could be said that we’ve grown with the market and accessed a variety of businesses once the multinational companies decided to enter Romania. Our service portfolio has also expanded to align with new trends and practices, from executive search and personnel evaluations to management audits, career counseling, outplacement, and coaching. Thus, our local area of expertise has continuously developed not only through the services portfolio but also through the fact that acting as HR generalist consultants has significantly contributed to strong market know-how and a diverse and complex network of professionals.Want to learn more?

Partner Series | Insights into Romania's Evolving Labor Market

Welcome to another ENEX Partner series, where we introduce our global Partner firms and the people behind the organisations. Today we introduce to you division one, our German ENEX Partner, with one of the biggest offices in our group. <h3>The current economic situation in Germany: opportunities and challenges.</h3>The German economy is currently experiencing a period of uncertainty characterized by global challenges and structural changes. After years of steady growth, economic expansion has slowed due to a number of factors, including supply chain issues, geopolitical tensions and the impact of inflation. In particular, energy-intensive industries are under pressure as energy prices in Germany remain comparatively high.The German labor market is currently facing a double challenge: while many sectors are at full employment, companies are experiencing a growing shortage of skilled workers in key areas such as technology, engineering and digitalization. This trend is exacerbated by demographic change alongside relatively high labor costs. With fewer young skilled workers entering the workforce, this will create further challenges for the labor market in the long term.At the same time, the pandemic has radically changed the working environment. Remote and hybrid working models have not only changed the demands on managers, but also created new opportunities and expectations in terms of flexibility and work culture.For organisations, this means rethinking their talent strategy. Agile leaders who anticipate and actively manage change are in demand. The competition for highly skilled talent is fiercer than ever, and companies need to offer more than just attractive compensation models - they need to set the right cultural and strategic course to retain and develop talent over the long term.In a dynamically changing labor market, flexibility is one of the keys to success. Companies must not only react quickly to change, but also act strategically for the long term to remain competitive. This is where division one comes in.<figure id="figure-hjkfdy76aym31fphdf"><img id="hjkfdy76aym31fphdf" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/21UJtXitk0PqituPNejoMt89XVPHMY8HLXGEuatXwCYFH9SmwAoH0BPOEH3Meh5t.jpg" alt="HR, human resources management technology concept.

Partner Series | ENEX Germany, division one

Welcome to another ENEX Partner series, where we introduce our global Partner firms and the people behind the organisations. Today we introduce to you another Psicotec office (aside from Spain), our Portuguese ENEX Partner.As it can still be heard in some parts of the country “Portugal is not a small country”. On the contrary, if economic data is anything to go by, the Portuguese economy has shown sustained growth over the last decade, driven by key sectors such as technology, renewable energy and logistics. However, the labor market faces major challenges such as its wage level, inflation and the need for skilled professionals to meet the demand in certain sectors. Will Portugal be able to take advantage of the current that will propel it to new horizons?<figure id="figure-oe29zuersfm28ygoi7"><img id="oe29zuersfm28ygoi7" src="https://media.gettyimages.com/id/506988692/photo/regional-and-high-speed-railroad-tracks-map-of-portugal.jpg?b=1&amp;s=2048x2048&amp;w=0&amp;k=20&amp;c=rCa06_L1eonCqTGe4tk94n6D2mb59EeUDIEnYpHohj0=" alt="Regional and high-speed railroad tracks map of Portugal" title="Regional and high-speed railroad tracks map of Portugal" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://media.gettyimages.com/id/506988692/photo/regional-and-high-speed-railroad-tracks-map-of-portugal.jpg?b=1&amp;s=2048x2048&amp;w=0&amp;k=20&amp;c=rCa06_L1eonCqTGe4tk94n6D2mb59EeUDIEnYpHohj0=" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure><h3>Economic growth, stability and international openness</h3>The Portuguese economy has shown remarkable resilience following the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent recession. Since then, the country has embarked on a series of economic and fiscal reforms that are now paying off, with GDP growing steadily, reaching 1.5% growth in the second quarter of 2024.&nbsp;In a global context of inflation and slowdown in many major economies, Portugal remains attractive for foreign investment and company relocation. This is especially notable in sectors such as tech &amp; digital, logistics &amp; transport, healthcare &amp; biotech and green energy, where the metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Porto are consolidating as hotspots for startups and multinationals. In turn, this investment has boosted job creation, especially for young people and highly qualified professionals.One of the aspects that has most energized the Portuguese labor landscape is closely related to qualified young people. Since 2023 Portugal is considered the 7th best global destination for digital nomads, ahead of other developed countries such as France or Canada. &nbsp;The attraction of this global digital talent has given a new boost to one of the most characteristic features of Portuguese culture: its openness to the world. Its languages’ proficiency, its quality of life and its professional and development incentives have made Portugal one of the main poles of attraction for tech talent in Europe.<h3>Technology and innovation: emerging sectors</h3>The technology and biotech sector is precisely one of the pillars of Portugal's recent growth. Lisbon has positioned itself as a European technology hub, attracting companies and professionals from all over the world. This sector offers job opportunities in the areas of programming, artificial intelligence, and software development, generating quality and well-paid jobs. However, the country faces a talent challenge, as many companies find it difficult to fill vacancies due to the shortage of professionals specialized in these areas.<h3>Renewable energies: growing greener</h3>Portugal has been a pioneer in the development of renewable energies, with a large part of its energy coming from clean sources, such as hydroelectric, wind and solar. This sector has not only contributed to reducing the country's energy dependence and carbon footprint, but has also been a growing source of employment.The Portuguese government has ambitious plans to expand its renewable energy capacity in the coming years, which will generate more jobs in the installation, maintenance and operation of clean energy infrastructure. Moreover, this commitment enables the country to move towards its goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.<h3>Future challenges</h3>All in all, Portugal's economy shows a solid path, driven by innovation, technology and sustainability. However, the modernization of the labor market, the improvement of employment conditions, training and the commitment to new work models will be crucial to consolidate this growth and avoid talent drain.&nbsp;In all this panorama, there is one topic that will be crucial in the coming years: the identification of the best talent capable of guiding Portuguese companies through this sea of change.<h2>ENEX Portugal | Psicotec Portugal | History of our Portuguese Partner</h2><figure id="figure-1l2qj22824m28yrem7"><img id="1l2qj22824m28yrem7" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/14yWWQNmQlSZoEPloFDbeBCQS4iE5A2jfHh6PMh37QHPpHJNMiJ2V6dOq624qTVA.png" alt="black magnifying glass on map" title="black magnifying glass on map" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/14yWWQNmQlSZoEPloFDbeBCQS4iE5A2jfHh6PMh37QHPpHJNMiJ2V6dOq624qTVA.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure>Psicotec launched its activity in Portugal in 2006 with the opening of its offices in Lisbon. Its original objective was always to strengthen synergies with its clients at Iberian level, being able to offer, both in Spain and Portugal, the best tailor-made solutions in Human Resources:<ul><li>Talent Selection and Executive Search</li><li>Training and Development of internal Talent</li><li>Talent Assessment and Evaluation</li><li>HR Consulting and Transformation</li></ul>But this initial objective was soon overtaken by the enormous opportunities offered by the Portuguese market. First of all, an international opening towards both sides of the Atlantic, towards Portuguese-speaking countries, but also, with a broader view towards a global market.Thus, this Iberian origin was transformed into a global vocation that led Psicotec Portugal to become the IT Hub of the entire Psicotec Group, an international center of excellence for recruitment, attraction and development of tech and executive talent. <blockquote>Psicotec Portugal has always solved Executive Search with an international perspective. Being part of ENEX is a natural step in our evolution. Together we can further expand our reach and offer our clients what they are really looking for: to find the professionals they need anywhere in the world.</blockquote>Susana Bogalho, Director at Psicotec Portugal<figure id="figure-1nd3k5unqm28yvm6v"><img id="1nd3k5unqm28yvm6v" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/83EEVfKxaDUWb6vlui2DIncX0gPIxYGPLSNsrGJ5rwBrncBk0EaTNFiBsw58rwGd.jpg" alt="person in a plane flying at high altitude taking photo of left airplane wing during daytime" title="person in a plane flying at high altitude taking photo of left airplane wing during daytime" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/83EEVfKxaDUWb6vlui2DIncX0gPIxYGPLSNsrGJ5rwBrncBk0EaTNFiBsw58rwGd.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure>Want to learn more?

Welcome to another ENEX Partner series, where we introduce our global Partner firms and the people behind the organisations. Today we share with you some aspects about the Spanish economy. Also, we introduce to you Psicotec, the Spanish ENEX Partner.When someone talks about Spain, it is easy to think of sun, beaches and vacations with sangria, paella and a good siesta. But, leaving stereotypes aside, the truth is that the Spanish economy in recent years has shown one of the most sustainable growth rates, both in terms of GDP and employment, in the EU. That is why it is worth asking what is happening in the Spanish labor market.<figure id="figure-oe29zuersfm28ygoi7"><img id="oe29zuersfm28ygoi7" src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1522072176817-41673f7f0ccc?crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;fit=max&amp;fm=jpg&amp;ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwzfHxtYXAlMjBvZiUyMHNwYWlufGVufDB8fHx8MTcyODkwNjc5OHww&amp;ixlib=rb-4.0.3&amp;q=80&amp;w=1080" alt="shallow focus photography of map" title="shallow focus photography of map" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1522072176817-41673f7f0ccc?crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;fit=max&amp;fm=jpg&amp;ixid=M3wyNjI5NjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwzfHxtYXAlMjBvZiUyMHNwYWlufGVufDB8fHx8MTcyODkwNjc5OHww&amp;ixlib=rb-4.0.3&amp;q=80&amp;w=1080" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><h3>Winds of change in employment</h3>The labor market in Spain is undergoing a period of transformation and expansion that offers numerous opportunities, specially located in the biggest cities of Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Málaga and Bilbao, but also in the Balearic (Majorca) and Canary Islands. Current trends reflect an increasing focus on high-value elements, especially in the key sectors of its economy.&nbsp;It is true that it still has high levels of unemployment, especially among the young population, but the number of workers in the last five years has increased considerably, mostly linked to new hiring forms and an important arrival of foreign professionals.&nbsp;As a result, we see a more dynamic, international working environment in a deep process of transformation. It is characterized by significant measures to support equality and diversity, which takes on the challenge of rethinking new working time models.<h3>Main trends transforming the Spanish labor landscape</h3><ul><li>Digitalization: Technology continues to drive most of the changes in the labor market. The demand for profiles related to digital transformation, such as software developers and data analysts, continues to increase, becoming a key piece for companies. There are many companies that, hand in hand with AI, are streamlining and evolving their processes.</li><li>Sustainability: Concern for the environment is also leading the way in many sectors, such as renewable energies. Professionals specializing in this area are seeing increasing demand, with opportunities in both the creation and management of green infrastructure.</li></ul><h3>Fastest growing sectors</h3><ol><li>Technology and IT: The IT sector continues to be one of the fields that generates the most employment, with profiles such as developers, technical support specialists and cybersecurity experts leading the way.</li><li>Healthcare: With a growing demand for healthcare services, this sector continues to expand, requiring everything from doctors and nurses to technical personnel specialized in hospital management.</li><li>Renewable energies: Energy transition policies have boosted this sector, where there is a strong need for engineers and technicians for solar and wind projects.</li><li>Public sector: In recent years, there has been an important commitment to public employment at all levels. The Administration itself is modernizing, a change that, to a large extent, is being replicated and amplified by the private sector.</li><li>Banking and insurance: This is one of the key sectors of the Spanish economy. It is immersed in restructuring processes, mergers and acquisitions while seeking to consolidate its international role.</li><li>Railway industry: The transport of goods and people by train has been deeply dynamized since its privatization. There are new competitors and large investments in rail infrastructure at national and international level.</li></ol> All these changes show a panorama, rich in opportunities. Spain is a market in transformation with a clear need for experienced professionals with leadership skills who are able to lead their teams and organizations through all these changes. The challenge? Identifying, attracting and engaging the needed professionals, something that can only be successfully achieved through optimized EXECUTIVE SEARCH processes.<h2>ENEX Spain | Psicotec | History of our Spanish Partner</h2><figure id="figure-1l2qj22824m28yrem7"><img id="1l2qj22824m28yrem7" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/14yWWQNmQlSZoEPloFDbeBCQS4iE5A2jfHh6PMh37QHPpHJNMiJ2V6dOq624qTVA.png" alt="black magnifying glass on map" title="black magnifying glass on map" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/14yWWQNmQlSZoEPloFDbeBCQS4iE5A2jfHh6PMh37QHPpHJNMiJ2V6dOq624qTVA.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure>Psicotec is a Human Resources and People Management consulting firm founded in 1985 and currently has offices in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Lisbon (Portugal) and Lima (Peru).&nbsp;Since its beginnings, the core of its activity has been Talent Search as well as EXECUTIVE SEARCH, this last one more tailored and oriented to mid-high and high positions in the organization.&nbsp;In addition, it designs solutions tailored to the needs of its clients in the areas of:<ul><li>Talent Development and Training</li><li>Assessment and Evaluation</li><li>Consulting and Organizational Transformation</li></ul>Mª Luisa Riobóo, Psicotec's General Manager, explains which are the competitive advantages that make Psicotec the perfect partner for any organization that needs support related to People Management:<ul><li>First and foremost, the Team.
