“Last month, employers posted more than 365,000 job openings for IT workers, the highest monthly total since September 2019, according to IT trade group CompTIA.”
Recruiters are comparing this to the late 90s. That should worry everyone, because we know how the late 90s ended. Remote work let engineers shop the whole country, and a third of IT staff say they plan to leave. Enjoy the leverage while it lasts. Employers will remember who held it.
