Catching Trends in Relevant Business Informatics Skills: An Outlook to Advertisements for IT jobs

In the modern labor and employment market, employers seek for employees having developed interdisciplinary knowledge and "soft skills". Business Informatics is an interdisciplinary field which applies informatics in business systems supported by information and communication technology. Given the interdisciplinary knowledge, including "soft skills" business informatics students attain, it is to be presumed they would make prospective employees in the labor market. Research has been carried out to determine whether knowledge attained through education in the field of business informatics meets the knowledge requirements set by the labor market and employment. For this purpose, we analyzed job advertisements for IT specialist published at the web site www.moj-posao.net during the May 1st till May 31st, May 2015. Following characteristics are observed: the employers’ economic activity and type of organization, job type, job categories, place of employment, as well as the employees’ education, work experience, certification and additional skills. The aim of this paper is to define the most sought after profile of IT specialists at the Croatian labor and employment market and to evaluate the competitiveness of Managerial Informatics graduates at the Faculty of Economics and Business in Zagreb, Croatia.
