CENTENNIAL, Colo., Nov. 18, 2021
CENTENNIAL, Colo., Nov. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Job postings for tech-focused roles in the third quarter of 2021 were up 39% year-over-year, according to the Q3 Tech Job Report from tech career marketplace Dice (a DHI Group, Inc. (DHX: NYSE) brand). Postings were flat quarter-over-quarter (Q2 to Q3), and were also flat against the third quarter of 2019, near the recent tech job posting highwater mark.
With seasonality taken into account, the data highlighted in Dice's latest report presents a level of stabilization in the tech job market, as well as a near-complete recovery from a dip in volume forced by the pandemic.
"We continue to be encouraged by the outlook for the tech job market, as our data for the third quarter shows both the strength of the recovery from the pandemic – postings are up almost 40% over Q3 2020 – and that the market sits close to its previous pre-COVID high," said Art Zeile, CEO of Dice. "As organizations transition to a hybrid workplace model and make a push to transform products and solutions to reflect the new environment, the need for skilled technologists will only become more acute. We're seeing those trends illustrated in this quarter's report through a focus on hiring for cybersecurity, business analysts, program managers and product coordinators, among others."
The Q3 Tech Job Report is Dice's seventh quarterly tech job market update, based on an analysis of more than one million U.S. tech job postings. The data and analysis focus on four core areas: tech job postings by location, employer, occupation and skills. The Q3 2021 issue also includes special features (Tech Hub Highlights) focused on why Tampa, Boston and Philadelphia are particularly attractive to tech-driven employers and current and aspiring technologists today.
