IT Recruiting in Kansas City: How to Attract & Engage Local Tech Talent

City of Fountains, Heart of America, Paris of the Plains—Kansas City is a place of many names. And yet as KC emerges as a leading destination for innovative companies and IT professionals, few words describe the city as well as “emerging tech hub.” The Kansas City technology sector contributed $13.4 billion to the local economy in 2022 alone.

But rapid growth presents a new challenge for KC companies: hiring local IT talent. Technical professionals are rising in demand across industries, keeping competition fierce for the relatively scarce number of qualified workers in the area. What’s more, 20% of Kansas City tech employees are opting for remote jobs (often with companies in other states), exacerbating the shortage even further.

So, how can businesses get the local talent they need? Our technical recruiters at Capstone IT Staffing successfully fill critical tech positions—from software developers to CTOs—for companies across the KC metro area each day.
