One of the biggest challenges for the company founders and CEOs, right up there with scaling the company into a sustainable business, is finding qualified employees. Yet those on CNBC's Disruptor 50 list — the 50 companies CNBC believes have the potential to upend multibillion-dollar industries to become the next generation of great public companies — revealed they are actually seeing progress when it comes to hiring.

This is according to CNBC's annual survey of CNBC's Disruptor 50 companies, conducted from April 16 to May 16, 2018. More than 60 percent of respondents said it's easier right now to find qualified employees to fill open positions than it was a year ago; 11 percent went so far to say it's "a lot easier."
