Skills & Careers of the Future: Hallmarks of the Digital Revolution

On the forefront of information technology (IT) innovation for decades, Department of Defense (DoD) scientists and engineers work at the cutting edge of technological breakthroughs. There are more than 100,000 scientists or engineers in a workforce bordering on three million. The DoD employs nearly half of the scientists and engineers across the federal government. Currently, they work on big data, high performance computing, and the security needs of government entities.

However, according to the IBM Center for the Business of Government, the private sector has more tools available for recruiting than the federal government does.

These include internships, mentoring, summer employment, and STEM scholarship programs. The federal government is now working to add these tools to their recruitment portfolio for STEM candidates, the Center said.
