Changing Up The Talent Mix

DXC's focus on digital transformations will mean a shift in its talent mix, it said in its presentation to investors. Today, 75 percent of the company's current roles focus on more traditional technology solution delivery and the remaining 25 percent on "next generation" technology. Some of those roles are solution architects, Agile project managers and DevOps engineers.

But by 2020, those next-gen roles will comprise about half of the DXC workforce. For example, Steve Hilton, executive vice president of global delivery, believes data scientists will become more prominent in the company.
