In today’s job market, businesses must rethink their hiring
strategies, prioritizing adaptability and a strong technical foundation
over specific language expertise.
Many organizations that run
their businesses on the Progress OpenEdge platform may inadvertently
limit their talent pool by focusing solely on candidates with extensive
OpenEdge experience. While hiring experienced professionals may seem
like the ideal solution, offering immediate expertise and minimal
training needs, this approach will significantly narrow recruitment
options. It limits access to emerging talent, increases hiring
costs—whether from extended job vacancies or the premium required for
experienced developers—and may not align with long-term growth and
innovation strategies. Balancing experience with potential can help
organizations build more adaptable, future ready teams.
Download this whitepaper to learn how to successfully hire and train OpenEdge developers, even if already-qualified candidates are in short supply. With the right approach, you can create a strong, adaptable team that propels your business forward.
