Hungarian IT sector resilient, but AI reshapes the domestic market and labour market
According to Portfolio, the Hungarian IT sector remains resilient, but AI is shaking up the domestic market too. Another analysis says that in the Hungarian labour market, formerly known for programmer shortages, IT professionals now have to compete for jobs.
Who is affected and how
- junior developer
- Competition for domestic entry-level positions is greater, so AI tool use and independent projects count.
- senior developer
- On the domestic market, AI competence can be a differentiating factor.
- CTO
- The earlier shortage in domestic recruitment may ease, so salaries and team sizes need to be recalculated.
