What tech hiring or job seeking trends
do you expect to see in 2021?

Phill Perkins
Associate Vice President

"2021 is going to be about establishing a cultural path forward. Are we fully remote forever? Do we hire people across the country or keep it time zone based? Should we keep a local component where engineers come to the office a few days a week, a month? One thing I can say for sure is candidates have strong preferences. I envision more folks gravitating towards jobs where there are at least a few days a month of in person time.

Kelsey Prisby
Executive Director

"Almost a year into a ‘new normal,' people have not only become used to additional flexibility in their work routine, but have designed ways to flourish. In 2021, even as we may shift away from WFH as a standard, I see a greater demand from candidates to maintain a more deconstructed work environment (with proven success now on their side), and with it a need for even more technology experts to keep our remote world connected.

Milenko Beslic
VP of Engineering

"Now that most of us have experienced a work from home setup for almost a year, as tech leaders we should be more open to looking outside our local markets to hire incredible, hidden tech talent. The long tail of the pandemic will go beyond 2021 for sure, so it's important to adapt and solve for the challenges we inevitably will continue to face while expanding our remote tech teams.
