| Open source technology is developing rapidly, gradually forming the mainstream of technology in fields such as cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence. As a new software production method, open source has been included in the outline of the 14th Five-Year Plan. The outline proposes to support the development of innovation consortiums such as digital technology open source communities, improve open source intellectual property rights and legal systems, and encourage enterprises to open software source codes, hardware designs, and application services. |
Industrial development, talent first", the prosperity and development of the open source ecology is inseparable from the cultivation of talents. However, a practical problem is that although the current market demand for open source talents is very strong, there is a serious shortage of open source talents. In fact, this contradiction has long been It has appeared in 2020, and as the digital transformation of global enterprises deepens, it is still being upgraded.
In the process of digital transformation, major companies have gradually realized the importance of specific open source projects and are more willing to recruit individuals to participate in them. Whether you can build solutions based on open source software, whether you have the ability to deploy open source software, and whether you have experience in using open source development tools, these open source capabilities have become important assessment indicators for companies to recruit open source talents.
According to the "Open Source Job Report" recently released by the Linux Foundation, at least 44% of hiring managers said that when recruiting new team members, open source capabilities are one of the most important assessment indicators, far higher than other skills . The vast majority of hiring managers surveyed (93%) also said that companies would even contribute to open source projects, such as donating code or grants, in order to recruit open source talent.
Faced with a huge gap in open source talents, many companies are taking proactive measures to cultivate and retain open source talents, such as increasing salaries and providing opportunities for professional training in technology, finance, and law. The attitudes and actions of enterprises are showing that the competition for talents is fierce.
The Linux Foundation has established a complete open source talent training mechanism. Linux Foundation Open Source Software Academy (LFOSSA) is the official training platform of the Linux Foundation in China. It not only has a wealth of online professional courses involving important and emerging open source software technologies, but also provides LF certification exam preparation courses to help developers obtain professional certification . Study and complete the corresponding official courses of the Linux Foundation to obtain the official course completion certificate of the Linux Foundation. Not only that, LFOSSA also often holds open classes and initiates online and offline activities to allow open source technology to reach more people.
