79% of companies expect the shortage to worsen in the future. This is the result of the new Bitkom study, for which 855 companies from all sectors were surveyed. AI is gaining in importance: 8% of companies are using it specifically to replace missing IT experts. 42% expect AI to create additional demand, while 27% anticipate job cuts. AI can already process support requests or generate code, but it also creates new requirements for specialized professionals. In addition to AI, companies are focusing on further training (31%), lateral entry programs (22%) and measures to retain older employees for longer (19%). 14% are specifically promoting women in IT professions, while 12% are increasingly relying on external staff. Nevertheless, 29% are currently doing nothing to combat the shortage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One in four IT jobs now goes to lateral entrants, often with non-specialist training but practical IT experience or self-taught know-how. It takes an average of 7.7 months to fill an open IT position. The main obstacles are excessive salary demands (63%), unwillingness to relocate (44%) and a lack of flexibility on the part of employers when it comes to mobile working (43%).<\/p>
