TECHNOLOGY JOB SEARCH
While job search is challenging for most professionals during this economic climate, executives and professionals in the technology, IT, and engineering fields face deeper issues. The ramifications of outsourcing, plus rapidly changing technologies, tools, and Internet solutions all place pressure on IT leaders to increase corporate agility and visibility (with cutting-edge solutions, of course) during a time of great change.
There is also a push for technology executives and leaders to be more aware of social media and the related implications of branding, both inside their job search and within the confines of their roles in corporate IT departments.
Technical professionals who tap into the power of Twitter, LinkedIn, Plaxo, Xing, blogs, and other Web 2.0 tools, for example, may find that they appear better capable of handling business communications.
In summary, technology job search has evolved in the past several years, and will undoubtedly continue to do so, as IT candidates have always had to deal with these (and other) considerations during career transition. This topic covers the latest information the technology job search as it continues to evolve.
