IT skills shortage: more and more open IT positions

There are more and more open IT positions. By now, 96,000 jobs in the IT sector remain unfilled – 12 percent more than in the previous year.

The figures are based on a study by the digital association Bitkom. For the study on the labour market for IT specialists, more than 850 companies from all sectors were surveyed. More than two thirds of the companies even expect the IT skills shortage to worsen further in the future.

Since 41 percent of companies with open IT jobs are looking for software developers, the MR.KNOW – DEVELOPER ASSISTANT can be a solution. With it, even non-IT staff can now build applications themselves.
