UK sees worst IT skills shortage for a decade
Perceived shortages in the industry jumped from 4.2 percent last year to 6.8 percent this year, a national survey of IT salaries and employment trends has found.
Just under 40 percent of respondents indicated recruitment and retention issues, a significant increase on the 29 percent reported last year.
The report warns employers to budget for increased training, with 73 percent of those who said there was a need for new skills planning to get hold of them by retraining existing staff.
