The challenge of finding competitive hiring insights for our client's community
Demand for digital web development and design is at an all-time high—and this is just the beginning. Even with economic uncertainty, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics expects the number of jobs in the field to grow 23% between 2021 and 2031. With demand fueling companies’ tough competition for designers, our client wanted to understand what attracts great talent. In order to get an accurate understanding of the current hiring landscape in the design community, our client needed to hear from the right professionals who have authority over design hiring and from a variety of companies across multiple countries.
