If you are tasked with hiring technology resources for a mid-tier mortgage lender, you know it can be a tough road. Worldwide there are literally hundreds of thousands of unfilled technology positions from companies in nearly every business sector. Many mortgage IT departments have evolved over time as the business and its reliance on IT grew. Others may have been purpose built and had the luxury of building an enterprise department in a single step. Regardless of how these departments were formed, both are recruiting into a technology ecosystem that is the most competitive in history and one that will surely grow more challenging.

Mortgage Bankers, we recently saw a post that put America’s debt crisis in the perfect perspective. “The biggest problem in the United States Government today is not tax revenues…It is spending. Back in 2018, the CBO forecasted that total public debt would be 22.9 Trillion at the end of FY 2024. The actual figure was 28.3 Trillion. Congress never has a problem spending more, and the rules are biased against tax cuts.” With that said, it can be very difficult to get our head around what a Trillion dollars is (let alone 5.4 Trillion). The post then went on to give us a great example of what a Trillion dollars equates to, “To better understand the difference between 1 Million and 1 Trillion is that one million seconds ago, would take you back a little over a week and a half. A billion seconds ago, would take you back to 1993. And one Trillion seconds ago – would take you back to about 30,000 BC.” Let that sink in…
