Recruitment of engineers in Romania

RECRUITMENT OF ENGINEERS IN ROMANIA

All organizations need to recruit outside personnel from time to time. In doing so, there are mainly two options: DIY (do it yourself) or RPO (recruitment process outsourcing). Choosing one over the other is determined by volumes (how many people needed), by difficulty (how hard to find the people are), by urgency (how fast need positions be filled) or by forecasted risk (what are risks of bad hire?). Generally, recruitment and selection are time consuming, pricey and sometimes risky which is why the support of professionals may be very fruitful.

Today’s shifting business environment requires quick reaction and high flexibility. Usually, businesses use both internal and external flexibility tools which are in most cases related to headcount structure, employment relations, working time and salary levels. In this respect, organizations may apply the regular internal employer-employee flexibility tools or they can turn towards the multiple external flexibility tools available and compliant with the legislation in force. 

The number of multinational firms operating in Romania is increasing and there are opportunities in the major cities for highly-skilled graduates.

The Romanian economy is seeing a slow but steady recovery following the global economic crisis but is still susceptible to shocks. With the increase in multinational firms operating in Romania, graduate jobs are available in cities such as Bucharest for graduates with language skills. There's a demand for fluency in certain languages including English, French and German, although speaking the local language is important for a normal life. Graduates with specialist skills and experience are most likely to succeed in the job market.

Where can you work?

• Major industries: electric machinery and equipment, textiles and footwear, light machinery and auto assembly, energy, crude oil processing, metals and metal products, chemicals, minerals, construction materials, food processing, agricultural products.
• Recent growth areas: the government is opening up sectors such as energy and telecoms to competition and investment.

Civil engineering graduates are welcome on general engineering schemes and in sectors such as financial management, but every year most choose to pursue their careers in the construction industry. Graduates typically apply for a civil or structural engineering job in a particular specialism or industry. Larger employers usually hire graduates into a specialist division or business, while smaller organizations often focus on one or two specialists in total. Whichever sector you choose, however, the nature of the job will differ depending on the type of employer you work for.

Most civil and structural engineers work for either a consultancy or a contractor.

• Consultants are involved with a project from the outset and work closely with the client, often managing the project on their behalf. Civil and structural engineers at consultancies are responsible for designing structures. Once building begins they help to resolve any design-related difficulties but, apart from the occasional visit to the site, are largely office-based.
• Contractors, meanwhile, actually build the project once the designs are finalized. They may contract out some work to specialist subcontractors, but they are responsible for the construction process and based on site. Civil and structural engineers at contractors manage teams and oversee the implementation of designs.

Starting out at a consultancy, you might assist with designs or gather data under the supervision of a team leader. Working for a contractor, you would start out by managing a small section of the project or ‘package’ on site. Recruiters will expect you to know the difference between consultancies and contractors and have considered reasons for applying to their type of organization.

There are also some graduate jobs with very specialist contractors. For example, in coastal and marine, there are companies specializing in dredging and reclamation, off-shore installations and specialist shipping.

In some industry sectors, including water and rail, you can work for client organizations (such as Network Rail, a water supply company or a local authority), often in a design-based or project management role.

As engineering employers only hire into areas where they have a pipeline of projects in place, you’ll find more vacancies in the areas that have been less affected by the recent economic troubles. These include the energy and power sectors, rail, and water and public health. However, it’s worth investigating how individual employers are performing in different specializes; even parts of the industry that are suffering overall may have a handful of firms that are managing to turn a profit.

The main industries or specialisms you could work in are:

• Airports: Typical projects involve modifying existing airports, including the runways and taxiways (‘airside infrastructure’), maintenance and cargo facilities (‘airside support services’), and terminal buildings.
• Bridges: Engineers need a strong understanding of structural engineering and the ability to work closely with highways, geotechnical, railway and environmental engineers. In addition to contractors and consultants, specialist structural organizations are involved in the superstructure design. Geotechnical engineers advise on the substructure and foundations. Specialist subcontractors and suppliers focus on areas such as bearings or post-tensioning. Typical clients include the Highways Agency, Network Rail and local authorities.
• Buildings: Sustainability is often a key consideration. Civil engineers work with building services engineers and other specialists to ensure buildings are designed with climate change in mind and to meet ever-evolving regulations.
• Coastal and marine: Projects focus on protecting coastal communities against rising sea levels and erosion using sea defenses – both hard defenses, constructed from concrete, for example, and soft defenses, which involve man-made or reconstructed beaches. Engineers may also be involved in building and maintaining ports, offshore wind farms and structures to harness tidal energy.
• Energy and power: Engineers design and build the infrastructure needed to create energy. Graduates could work on projects such as the designs for an offshore wind facility, the maintenance of an oil platform or the decommissioning of an old nuclear power plant.
• Environmental: Engineers can become environmental consultants, a role in which they will ascertain and then reduce the impacts of a proposed project on the environment. They can specialize in specific areas, such as flood risk.
• Geotechnical: In this specialist area, engineers are responsible for the foundations of structures. They assess field data about the ground, soil, rock and boreholes, and find ways to make sure that foundations or slopes are safe and stable. They could specialize in completing site investigations, designing foundations or overseeing the on-site construction work. Specialist postgraduate study is often advantageous.
• Highways: This job involves overseeing temporary works and permanent works and finding ways to ease traffic congestion, lessen environmental impact and improve road safety.
• Offshore: This sector is concerned with the safe and profitable development of hydrocarbon resources. Engineers undertake the design and installation of oil production platforms, sub-sea structures, pipelines, permanent and temporary anchorages, and assessments of seabed stability. This can involve conceptual and feasibility studies, site assessments, design of foundations and structures, installation supervision and operational management. Projects can be in isolated locations.
• Rail: Engineers use their technical knowledge to design, build and maintain the railway system’s infrastructure, including tracks, earthworks and drainage, and telecoms and power. Cost is a particular consideration for engineers in this sector.
• Tunneling: This area chiefly calls on specialist structural and geotechnical knowledge but can also involve many elements of underground engineering – rock tunnels, shafts, caverns and stations, for example, may come under the remit of a tunneling engineer. Engineers also take decisions on a project’s viability in terms of safety, location and cost, and ensure it has a limited impact on the environment and any buildings nearby.
• Water and public health: The ultimate objective of these projects is to provide clean drinking water and treat wastewater. Engineers might be involved in implementing sustainable water drainage systems, creating energy-efficient treatment plants or improving infrastructure to prevent urban flooding.

NEAR SHORING IN ROMANIA FOR ICT

Near-shoring is a form of off-shoring where the destination country is nearer to the home office then would be the case in the more traditional form of off-shoring. The definitions of off-shoring and near-shoring are:

• Off-shoring is defined as the movement of a business process done at a company in one country to the same or another company in another, different country. Almost always work is moved because of a lower cost of operations in the new location.
• Near-shoring is "the transfer of business or IT processes to the same or another company in a nearby country, often sharing a border with your own country", where both parties expect to benefit from one or more of the following dimensions of proximity: geographic, temporal (time zone), cultural, linguistic, economic, political, or historical linkages. The service work that is being sourced may be a business process or software development.

In general the decision to move part of a business abroad is based on one or several of the arguments mentioned below:

• Opportunities for running a business at reduced costs, because the destination country can provide raw materials, services or labor at lower costs than the home country;
• Access to the local marketplace for the products produced by the company;
• Taking benefit of particular skilled labor, not (sufficiently) available in home country;
• Production of product with an expiration date close to the marketplace;
• The destination country's location is favorable in the sense that it can act as a logistic hub for a new market;
• Companies that want to go abroad should have a thorough understanding of why they want to do so, because these reasons will be the driver for their consequential decisions: near-shoring or off-shoring, set up an own branch or a company or find a local partner, etc. These topics are further addressed in this chapter.

Off-shoring is the move of a supportive or primary business service outside the home country. In the past decade off-shoring has become equivalent with moving jobs to the Far East, especially in the production of goods and the IT sector. The biggest perceived benefit of moving services to the Far East is a reduction in costs.

The main benefits of off-shoring are:

• Cost savings
• Access to a new market
• An attractive labor market
•  Can help to fulfill offset obligations.

Near-shoring is very similar to off-shoring, except for the distance (both in physical distance as well as cultural distance) between the home and destination country.

The idea behind near-shoring is that it provides a more sustainable business climate because it offers the same benefits as off-shoring with fewer drawbacks. The main benefits of near-shoring are:

• Cost savings
• Access to a new market
• An attractive labor market
• Closer communication and cooperation between the companies involved Corporate Social

Responsibility (CSR) considerations.

Compared to off-shoring, the following downsides can still be present for near-shoring and should be looked at by companies that consider near-shoring:

• Infrastructure of the destination county
• Governance of the out-of-country branch or partner
• Inefficient communications
• Expenses related to travel

Romania is an attractive near-shoring destination due to the high level of technical and language skills of IT workers, its well-developed IT industry and availability of a vast IT labor pool. The ITC market value was €7bn in 2011. Romania has more than 8.000 software and IT service companies, meaning that 23% of the active workforce is employed in science and technology.

Internationally acknowledged talent pool

• European leader and 6th in the world by number of certified IT specialists;
• First in EU with regards to the total number of Computer Science and Mathematics Olympiad medals earned, third worldwide after Russia and China;
• Around 9,000 computer science graduates/year, high percentage of manpower in advanced R&D.

Competitive advantages

STRENGTH

• highly skilled labor force;
• highly competitive labor costs;
• strong tradition of Technical Expertise;
• exceptional geographic location;
• foreign languages proficiency;
• stable business environment;
• western European business mentality, behavior and work culture;
• availability of IT infrastructure: telecommunication lines, hi-speed internet, mobile broadband;

OPPORTUNITIES

• 90% of the software development companies have experience on near-shoring and outsourcing market;
• Investment support of foreign investments;
• Attractive taxation (flat income tax 16%);
• Tax incentives development engineers;
• Availability of EU structural funds, which can be used for R&D and training;
• Project management expertise.

Employment

It is relatively easy to hire well-educated and well-trained employees in Romania; the Romanian education system focuses on theoretical knowledge, thus employees have a
solid background they can build on during their career; especially compared to the surrounding countries, Romanians have excellent language skills. All educated persons speak English. If needed it is relatively easy to find people that speak Russian, Italian, Spanish, German and Hungarian; the job market in Romania is lively, so when a vacancy is announced there is usually a lot of response. This enables a company to build up a team of substantial size quickly; the wages in Romania are lower; in 2012 the net wages in Romania were the equivalent of 25-75% of those in the Netherlands, depending on the industry and the employee's qualification.

Romania is part of the EU and NATO. There is a big and active international business community in Romania, which makes it easy o get support. Office space and other local expenses are cheaper than in other countries. Internet connection: Romania ranks top in Europe when it comes to internet speed.

The development technologies that should be used play an important role in the selection criteria for a near-shoring partner. Many companies, particularly the smaller ones, focus on a certain platform and/or development technology, e.g. Microsoft Windows or Linux environments. Your prospective partner should have ample experience with the required technologies and be prepared to work with them. There is a tendency among certain communities (especially the younger IT staff) to always want to use the newest tools and technologies. This can contradict with the interests of the customer, who often is dealing with legacy systems and cannot always keep all its projects updated at all times.

Due to the major influence and training by western companies as well as the western management in the ITC industry, the Romanian ITC workers are significantly more visionary, creative and independent than the average Romanian workers.

Romania’s density of software graduates per thousand inhabitants is significantly higher than in USA, it is five times than in Russia and nearly seven times than of India. The right people can ensure success of the project.
