Looking for a staff job, or pitching consulting work to the enterprise? Good news for those in either the tech or creative services field — your services are in high demand.

The study, combined with Bureau of Labor Statistics data on professional position unemployment, offers a view of what starting professional pay hikes will look like for next year as well as insight into which professional jobs are in high demand.
