IT Jobs Where Have All the Candidates Gone

The IT industry is one of the most important and lucrative sectors in most developed economies. The influence and importance of the IT sector feeds into other industries such as the finance and telecommunications sectors. Moreover, there is simply an abundance of job opportunities for IT professionals who have the skills and experience which employers require.

Even though the IT boom of the 1990s may have now subsided to an extent; through out the economy, there is still a high demand for fully qualified IT experts. There is now evidence that IT employers currently have a substantial demand for IT professionals who are also business-conversant. This suggests that there is now a fall in the demand for IT experts who possess 'hard' IT skills. These include professionals such as developers and programmers.

On the other hand, the job market demand trend does seem to now favor IT candidates like business analysts and project planners. At this junction, it should be mentioned that the IT job market is one that is characterized by constantly changing skills and experience requirements. This means that if IT professionals are to be successful in obtaining suitable roles, they have to become increasingly aware of the exact job requirements and expectations of employers. Some experts have suggested that it is this lack of awareness of job requirements that has lead to some of the skills shortages in the IT job market.
