Layoffs in big tech have not yet translated to an oversupply of technologists, as in-demand open roles continue to outnumber workers available to fill them.
“Even though we’ve seen a ton of tech layoffs, in the hundreds of thousands in the last three to four months … we’re still seeing it’s difficult to hire folks, especially if you’re not in Silicon Valley,” said Jason Beres, SVP, developer tools at Infragistics.
HR leaders, tasked with filling open roles, say they lack confidence in their ability to meet hiring targets, according to research from General Assembly.
