Global experts favour outsourcing jobs from developed nations to countries such as India and China, even though 'anxieties' over job securities exist in US and other parts of the world.
Unconventional jobs such as healthcare and personal trainers are expected to be the most demanding non-managerial jobs in the coming years while being a plumbers or electrician may be an even more rewarding profession in developed nations than software p rogrammers.
Debating job related issues at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting, experts agreed that flexibility and mobility was the buzz of the hour in the job market.
"Stop being insecure about off-shoring. It created more jobs in the North America," Mr David Arkless of leading HR firm, Manpower said.
Mr Jagdish Bhagwati, professor, Columbia University also favoured outsourcing and said that western nations were at an advantage by outsourcing jobs to countries with a different time zone like India and China.
"However, there are anxieties due to flux. You have to be prepared for flexibility and augment your skills," he said.
Favouring outsourcing of high-end jobs, Tata Consultancy Services CEO, Mr S Ramadorai said, "It is a question of dynamics, flexibility and mobility. Value added services always stay but commodity-based services shift according to costs."
