The purpose of this paper is to synthesize the proceedings of the 1998-1999 and 1999-2000 Technology and Commerce Roundtables on the topic of the “Recruitment and Retention of High-Tech Professionals” and to raise issues and challenges which have been generated from these discussions. The paper will address the responses of corporate partners, students, and the university faculty with respect to the recruitment and retention of IT professionals, skill and knowledge requirements for IT personnel, the factors important to MIS graduates in selecting career opportunities, the impact of commercial off-the-shelf software on IT skill requirements, and IT compensation strategies.
