The organization says nearly 1,500 Hoosier tech workers in 2021 were working for companies headquartered outside the state, a number that is expected to grow.
There is no way this is even close to accurate… I would guess it is 10-20x that.
Why don’t these companies go after all the tech workers that were recently laid off in other states? They are already qualified workers, and I’m sure they would find the cost of living here in IN to be much better than on the west coast where most were previously.
backwards legislature makes it so much harder to attract people from out of state compared to convincing people to stay
Robert H is absolutely right. Educated college grads don’t want to live in the christofascist state IN is rapidly becoming. Under His Eye.
That’s because Indianapolis Tech Employers don’t compete with the coasts or other major metros on salary. With remote work a thing, why would a tech worker work for less for an in-state employer?
Hard to believe. My grandson got a bachelor degree in computer science and has been unable to find a job in that field. He says every company he contacted wanted experienced employees. How is a young person supposed to get experience?
If a job opportunity is posted for a Junior Developer, employers could expect about 1,000 applications. There is no shortage of junior developers. However, most companies do not have apprenticeships or mentorship programs to cultivate new talent. Rather than have no plan to do so.
Instead, hiring managers hope to find an experienced developer/engineer (usually already employed somewhere else). The hiring challenge for Indy remains to solve this puzzle:
Why would an experienced software developer settle for less salary in the Indianapolis Metro market versus another employer, for example in Chicago, when remote work is an option?
