What this tells you as a job seeker in IT is how crucial it is to keep up with current trends. Keep your skills fresh and updated so that you are coming forth with the best tool belt possible. What this will tell hiring managers is that they may need some extra assistance when it comes to finding a qualified candidate within their area and skill set.
