You will need to run numerous tests to make sure the security is top standard. It’s a tough job that requires lots of work, but the pay benefits make up for it.
App Developer
There are few things that have grown more than mobile app development in the past few years. With the rise in smartphone/tablet’s on the market, we’ve seen even more apps. People download and use app on their devices every single day. Becoming a mobile app developer is a sure fire way to tap into this market and make a lot of money. You can either work for a company that specialise in app development or become a freelance app developer. Going freelance means you can negotiate your salary, but might get less work.
Systems Analyst
A systems analyst combines knowledge of both IT and business. The main job is to analyse and develop a computer system to meet the needs of a business. You will spend hours pouring through data and looking at what’s wrong/right with a computer system. It will then be your job to make any changes and develop a new system. Systems Analyst is one of the highest paid jobs in IT right now.
Graphic Designer
Graphic Designers are all about design and artistry. This job can take many different forms but the premise remains the same; designing. You could design things like logos for a business, or promotional posters/billboards. Graphic design is one of the hottest jobs in the freelance market. It’s a job that requires you to have many different clients in order to succeed.
Web Designer
Still another hugely popular IT job in this day and age. Web designers are a vital part of most businesses, as they handle the creation of a website. Having a good website is key to most online businesses, so they look for top of the range web designers.
Tech Support
There is so much technology available to the consumer. As a result, the need for support is bigger than ever. Tech support jobs are extremely common because companies need good customer service. People will always struggle with technology, so this is a job that will last for a long time.
If you’re thinking of a career change, then IT jobs could be the best choice for you. Jobs in IT come in thick and fast. There are far more jobs now than a few years ago, thanks to the growth in technology. And, the business is booking for women too. Picking a job in IT is wise because it’s a job for the future, not just for now.
