A vast majority of unicorns are still recruiting, but not only want engineers. Uber, for instance, have openings for everything from claims advocates, data scientists, and account executives. Unicorns are becoming more particular about the roles that they are looking to fill in.
Software engineers have the highest demand, with a few openings for marketing, business, and managerial positions.
