With the goal of attracting 5,000 foreign IT specialists to Ukraine by the end of this year

With the goal of attracting 5,000 foreign IT specialists to Ukraine by the end of this year, the State Migration Service starts this week a program of simplifying paperwork — at Ukrainian consulates abroad and at Migration Service offices at home. Announced six months ago, the program was delayed to coronavirus travel restrictions. IT job vacancies hit 4,245 in June, 21% above May, reports jobs.dou.ua, an IT industry website. Little affected by the coronavirus lockdown, Ukraine’s big IT companies recruit from Belarus, Kazakhstan and Moldova.
