The persistent shortage of
technology workers is no longer
just an inconvenience for many
employers — it’s quickly becoming
a significant business problem.
5. THE TECH TALENT
SHORTAGE
Over 1,600 CIOs agree there’s a deficit which means
massive demand for those with the right tech skills.
6. IS THERE REALLY
A SHORTAGE?
Large companies are faced with meeting very aggressive
hiring goals — sourcing candidates from a limited talent
pool and competing against each other for the top
talent.
7. DIGITAL INITIATIVES
DRIVING HIGHER DEMAND
The more companies look to digitize and
automate business processes, the greater
their need for technology professionals.
15. EFFECTS AND IMPACT
Whatever the causes of not being able to source
technical talent, a lack of qualified candidates is
having a real impact on businesses’ ability to operate
at their full potential.
18. HOT INDUSTRIES
FOR TECH IN 2018
Technology workers with knowledge of the latest
developments in cloud, open source, mobile, big data,
security and other technologies will only become more
valuable to businesses in the years ahead.
19. Healthcare — Healthcare businesses
need professionals with IT expertise
to help them modernize their
operations and innovate in order to
deliver better patient care.
Financial services — Big data and
information security initiatives are
driving the need for technology
professionals in this sector.
Manufacturing — This sector has been
somewhat slow to adopt when it
comes to information technology, but
that’s changing, and quickly. IT talent is
becoming increasingly valuable to the
industry because of the trend toward
automation.
