The possibilities are endless

There are few roles or specialisms with as much scope as Software Engineering. From front-end to back-end, in an ever-changing environment of technological innovation, the need for talented developers is only growing.

While common languages like C#, Java, and PHP are still extremely prevalent, more niche programming languages like Golang and Swift are emerging as highly desirable skills, especially by fast-developing tech companies. Whatever languages you work in or hire for, we’re here to help - we’ve recruited for roles that use C#, Java, PHP, JavaScript (React, Angular, Vue.js), TypeScript, C++, C, Python, Kotlin, Swift, Ruby, Go, SQL, HTML, CSS, and more, so you know that we have the technical knowledge and experience to find the perfect fit.

  • Java Developer

We Offer Advice, Market Insights and Benchmarking

Job roles and titles aren’t standardized as in many IT specialisms, so you’ll find a variety of descriptions and names for roles. While “Software Engineer” serves as an umbrella term, you may also see job titles listed as a Systems, Web, or Software Programmer, Engineer, or Developer, depending on the system you’re working with. It may also include the programming language you’ll use in the role, such as a Java Developer or a PHP Developer. 

Because there’s so much variation in job listings and titles, it can be overwhelming to try and find a vacancy in your specialism on your own. That’s where an IT recruitment consultancy can help - at Applause IT, we’re experts in pairing the perfect candidate and company, and have been successfully doing so for the last 20 years. 

Whether you’re looking for a permanent, temporary or contract role, front-end to back-end, in whatever language you work in, Applause IT is here to help. Get in touch today for a friendly, no-obligation call with one of our consultants.
