  • Only 29% of IT workers intend to stay with their current employer posing a risk to digital transformation plans and lost productivity.²
  • From 2020 – 2021, the average time to fill a role increased by 18% resulting in an additional two weeks to fill a position, delayed projects and heavy workloads for existing staff
