CIO Insight — Tips for Hiring; Retaining IT Staff
CIO Insight is a great industry magazine which I enjoy regularly online and off. A recent article hit home for me, as a consultant to help companies with their technical recruiting:
Three Experts’ Tips for Hiring, Retaining IT Staffs
When it comes to hiring and retaining IT staffs, the future doesn’t look so bright. The Baby Boomers are getting ready to retire, the number of college students entering computer science has dropped 50 percent in the last five years, according to the Computer Research Association, and the need for corporate IT people is growing.
In the article, they bring three expert opinions together on hiring and retention for IT personnel. They surround three areas:
- Vision and Leadership Style (‘CIO 2010′)
- Compensation (Money still talks… loudly)
- Optimizing your Workforce (right people, right places, right length of time)
Another excellent article you should read here (more of an overall analysis of the talent-management issue) is the cover article for CIO Insight’s October 2006 edition: “Attracting IT Talent: The Human Factor”
Oh, and do you know the three things IT professionals want beside more money?
