Janco forecast approximately 42,000 jobs will be added to the 56,800 already created – 100K new jobs in total

Park City, UT – (e-janco.com) The IT Job Market continues to be bullish. CIOs are optimistic and do not see any slowing in their hiring of staff, outside contractors, and consultants. Even though there still are more position openings than qualified professionals available to fill them, the candidate pool is large enough for recruiters to find qualified candidates. Janco has seen a slight increase in attrition rates due to more active recruiting and the compression of pay grades for some key positions.

Janulaitis said, “The number of new jobs created continues unabated. Most of the new positions created are beyond those of traditional business analysts and programmers. With the emphasis on getting data closers to those who need it, applications being developed are mobile and designing user interfaces that comply with the latest security and privacy mandates is a priority. New skill sets are being recruited. Legacy processing is taking a back seat.” 

The CEO added, “IT Governance processes are gaining in importance as the scope of the IT function continues to expand into more operational areas of the enterprise.
