According to a recent study from Deltek, government contractors are struggling to attract and retain qualified candidates.
Deltek’s 11th Government Contracting Industry Study, carried out between January and March 2020, said that turnover was common, and that the need for highly specialized roles in fields such as information technology made for a tight labor market.
“Finding, recruiting and retaining qualified talent continues to challenge the government contracting sector,” the report states. “Talent shortages and commercial competition for candidates have complicated matters for human capital management leaders.”
