美国目前正在进行一场关于该国是否存在科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）劳动力短缺的重大辩论。这是拜耳科学教育事实第十六届会议的主题：美国STEM劳动力短缺-神话还是现实？《财富》1000强人才招聘者在辩论中。拜耳事实调查是拜耳公司委托进行的一项持续的民意研究项目，旨在研究美国STEM教育，多样性和劳动力问题。这是该系列的第16次，最新的调查要求美国一些最大的雇主（包括财富1000强）的人才招聘人员权衡当前和未来对拥有2年和4年STEM学位的新员工的需求。作为负责在财富1000强公司（包括STEM和非STEM公司）物色、招聘和雇用人才的专业人士，这些人站在第一线，负责评估和满足公司的劳动力需求。该调查询问招聘人员，拥有2年和4年STEM学位的新员工是否比没有STEM学位的同行更受欢迎？他们公司创造的新STEM工作岗位比非STEM工作岗位多吗？他们能及时找到足够数量的合格候选人吗？对STEM学位持有者的竞争有多激烈？为了回答这些问题和其他问题，该调查对财富1000强公司的150名人才招聘人员进行了调查，包括STEM和非STEM。该调查还向招聘人员询问了STEM的分流，管道中的劳动力多样性，社区大学在发展STEM管道中的作用以及新员工所需的技能和能力。
A major debate is currently underway in the USA about whether there is, in fact, a science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce shortage in the country or not. This is the subject of the Bayer Facts of Science Education XVI: US STEM Workforce Shortage-Myth or Reality? Fortune 1000 Talent Recruiters on the Debate. An ongoing public opinion research project commissioned by Bayer Corporation, the Bayer Facts surveys examine US STEM education, diversity and workforce issues. The 16th in the series, the newest survey asks talent recruiters at some of the country's largest employers-those included in the Fortune 1000-to weigh in on current and future demand for new hires with 2- and 4-year STEM degrees. As professionals responsible for scouting, recruiting and hiring talent at Fortune 1000 companies, both STEM and non-STEM alike, these individuals are on the frontlines, tasked with assessing and filling their companies' workforce needs. The survey asks the recruiters whether new hires with 2- and 4-year STEM degrees are as, more or less in demand than their peers without STEM degrees? Are more new STEM jobs being created at their companies than non-STEM jobs? Can they find adequate numbers of qualified candidates in a timely manner and how fierce is the competition for STEM degree holders? To answer these and other questions, the survey polled 150 talent recruiters at Fortune 1000 companies, both STEM and non-STEM alike. The survey also asks the recruiters about diversion in STEM, workforce diversity in the pipeline, the role of community colleges in developing the STEM pipeline and the desired skills and competencies of new hires.
