The skills and professions in demand in both these regions vary according to local industries and location. The Iskandar Development projects would increase the demand for professionals such as engineers, architects, quantity surveyors, researchers in life sciences and bio-technology sectors. 2009 will see an increase in hiring capable and well-rounded personnel who can handle reception, administration and basic accounting responsibilities. The employment outlook is positively affected by the consolidation of administrative support staffs due to reasons like heavy reliance on technology and increment in office automation. There has been a continued demand in talents like Secretaries, Office Coordinators and Administrative Assistants who can handle diverse portfolios and be an active participant in the company’s growth. In both these regions, there is an increasing trend in hiring office support personnel on temporary basis due to uncertainty of the local and global economic outlook. Although the transport and storage sub-sector expanded at a moderate pace of 6.1% in the first half of 2008, the global economic downturn which adversely affected the manufacturing sector translated into lower demand for air cargo, shipping, ports and other related services. Hiring trend remained selective in this region. In the second half of the year, the civil engineering sub-sector was affected by a sharp increase of construction materials, particularly steel and cement. The adjustment to the Variation of Price (VOP) along with the moderation in steel prices towards the end of 2008, revived the confidence in the construction industry. Sectors such as Waste Water Treatment, Power and Energy in the northern and southern region are continually hiring with a preference for contract staff. 18 malaysia employment outlook and salary guide 2009/2010 Occupation Title Qualification Experience (years) Job Description Min.
