How is the UK's IT workforce faring in today's economic climate? silicon.com's annual Skills Survey, now in its 11th year, aims to find out.
The survey is intended to track the year's skills trends, and discover how things have changed in the last 12 months.
Highlights of last year's survey include the revelation that the gender pay gap is still alive and kicking in IT, with a third of women in the lowest wage bracket. Offshoring too was a hot topic, with almost half of respondents agreeing that offshoring is undermining the skillsets of UK techies.
So how have things changed in 2009?
We want to discover your opinions on everything from skills and training to offshoring and contractors.
What key skills, both technical and non-technical, are most in demand? Is the IT industry sexist? Is your job sector offshore-proof? Are companies doing enough to ensure these skills are nurtured in UK Plc? And what will be the trends of 2009?
Let us know what you think. Click here to take the survey and make sure your opinions are counted. You can also enter our prize draw to win an iPod Touch. All answers are anonymous, of course.
