Take the surveyWhat’s in it for you?
We know, we know: surveys probably aren’t your idea of fun.
But that’s not to say you don’t benefit from taking Jefferson Frank’s 2023-24 Careers and Hiring Guide survey—here are three reasons to complete it today.
Contribute to the community
From User Groups to Community Days, the AWS community is built on an ethos of unity and participation. Nobody wins unless everybody wins, with knowledge and collaboration instrumental to the platform’s ability to evolve and grow.
When taking Jefferson Frank’s 2023-24 Careers and Hiring Guide survey, you’re contributing your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences to a wider community discussion about the state of today’s AWS landscape.
Being an active member of the AWS community is all about taking part and doing your bit to drive collaboration, education, and innovation. Our survey is a convenient and effective way of getting your voice heard, directing discourse around the platform, and influencing change where it’s needed most. From celebrating successes to highlighting concerns, contribute your knowledge and experiences to the community and help your peers to thrive.
Gain greater insight
Of course, the greater the quantity and quality of responses we receive, the better insights the Jefferson Frank Careers and Hiring Guide: AWS Edition can offer—and these insights can be instrumental to both organizations and professionals finding success.
For example, in our most recent Careers and Hiring Guide, respondents were made up of just 25% Asian; 6% Black, African or Caribbean; and 5% Hispanic or Latino. This small sample size makes it difficult to fully understand diverse experiences within the community, meaning it’s harder to offer a true reflection of its makeup. Greater representation among our respondents would ensure we’re always shining the spotlight on the right areas, meaning the Careers and Hiring Guide can have an even greater impact on hiring directions and candidate opportunities.
Likewise, Jefferson Frank’s Careers and Hiring Guide: AWS Edition provides extensive data and advice for any professional working or looking for work within the AWS community, helping to influence your next career steps. With insights on certifications, skills, perks, salaries, hiring trends, and a whole, whole lot more, it’s the go-to resource for any professional looking to understand their market value and learn more about the opportunities available to them.
And from a digital skills gap still yet to be bridged to a cost of living crisis, redundancies in tech, and the increasing fragility of global economic markets, there’s a desperate need to accurately reflect the state of the community today. A thorough understanding of the landscape has arguably never been so important to equip us all with the best chance of navigating the rough path ahead.
But this only works with your help.
