No chance, says the IT career site Dice.com. Not only is there no sign of a letup in tech hiring, the evidence is that recruiting IT professionals is going to be harder than ever.

Dice.com surveyed hiring managers and recruiting professionals to find 73 percent of them report their companies plan to do more hiring of tech workers in the next several months. Nearly a quarter of all the survey respondents told Dice their tech hiring would be “substantial.”

Lured by more pay, the number of professionals switching jobs is growing. More than 40 percent of the survey respondents said they’ve lost tech staff in the last six months. That compares to just over 30 percent who said that in the spring survey. The No. 1 reason for the job changes: pay, reported three-quarters of the survey participants.

Making clear just how challenging the recruiting environment is for companies seeking tech workers, almost 6 in 10 said they’ve had to leave to positions vacant because of their existing salary guidelines. And a third of them have had offers rejected.
