ZDNet writes: “The skills shortage is spreading further, with developers for data science, DevOps and cloud roles in high demand.” Citing recruiting research in the UK:
Harvey Nash director David Savage said the recruiter found the biggest skills shortages were in data science and analytics. He said because data science demands a narrow field of technical skills, plus a highly academic approach, there are huge problems in the talent pipeline and no clear or easy way to increase the number of available professionals.
There’s a shortage in the U.S. as well for highly skilled programmers.
