A recent Everjobs career report showed accounting and auditing, human resource and administrative job roles to be in high demand, especially in the rapidly expanding healthcare sector of Sri Lanka.
It also revealed an emerging demand for project management specialists.
The career report is assembled by monitoring the traffic on Everjobs.lk over the month of June.
In the past month, job listings in the healthcare sector have increased by folds, not just for medical professionals but for finance, human resource and administrative jobs too.
The primary reason for this is the increasing numbers of clinics and outpatient care establishments presenting various opportunities to professionals in the industry.
“It’s easy to typecast the people who seek employment in different sectors, but it’s important to remember that there are all kinds of different occupations in any particular industry,” Sascha Woelk, Managing Director of Everjobs Sri Lanka stated.
“Besides the healthcare sector, there’s a fair surge in telecommunication, import & export, financial services and retail sectors that offer good prospects for finance, human resource and administrative specialists, regardless of what goods or services they are producing,” he added.
“Healthcare will continue to grow faster and provide some of the best paying professional jobs in the country,” read a testimonial from a candidate who successfully landed one of the HR roles listed by a leading outpatient care establishment.
It further added that “There’s a need for skill development initiatives in the healthcare sector.
We also need to focus on additional support in creating awareness around career options”
