Description
Consultancy company Capgemini's Finnish affiliate Capgemini Finland is about to recruit 100 new employees in 2017-2018. The jobs concern at least experts in digitalisation, service design, cloud development, SAP, coding, robotics and artificial intelligence. Also project managers will be recruited. The recruitment is prompted by changes related to digitalisation and services that are tailored to be increasingly comprehensive. Such services require working together with clients in person and cannot be done exclusively by off-shored employees.
