What Are the Main Opportunities for IT Services Employees?

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs in the computer and information technology sector are expected to increase by 15% over the next decade. That’s roughly 628,000 new jobs in a field that is constantly evolving. As the economy becomes more dependent on and integrated with technology, the IT sector is poised for continued growth and the sky is the limit on opportunities for new hires.

The Great Resignation in the midpoint of the COVID-19 pandemic peaked in late 2021 and early 2022 and saw millions of qualified individuals leaving jobs they weren’t satisfied with to search for more fulfilling opportunities. Workers demanded better benefits, better work-life balance, and a better experience altogether. More than 50 million workers left their jobs in 2022, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. That’s a lot of brain trust, experience and expertise potentially re-entering the labor market. And that’s an excellent opportunity for someone to join the ERP Suites team.
