Speaking generally about the industrial sector in Indonesia, Dhika, an experienced recruitment consultant, said despite a slow-down in the Indonesian economy, particularly in oil and gas and mining, positive trends were continuing in the logistics (shipping) and construction industries, including in the supporting manufacturing sector. Bright spots included Indonesia’s focus on the infrastructure, energy (including alternative renewable energy sources) and maritime sectors, including the development of Tanjung Priok Port in Jakarta, he said.
“Monroe Indonesia’s Industrial Division focuses on staying on top of all of the industry trends by engaging with key executives and thought leaders in our field,” Dhika said. “Continuous training sessions for our recruitment consultants has been one of the key factors in our proven ability to provide the best recruitment solutions to leading industry players looking to hire the best talent available in Indonesia today.”
