By Staff Report, posted 4 years ago

The North Carolina Technology Association released its updated monthly snapshot of available IT positions in the state. These positions are broken down by top listings, MSA, job type, skills, and certifications. 

NC TECH’s Tech Talent Trends Alert is released at the later half of every month with a rolling thirteen-month chart of IT job openings to help track trends in the industry.

“Once again, IT job openings continue the trend of record setting numbers; although August through October of 2021 were fairly flat, job openings have been on an upward trajectory ever since,” says Andrea Fleming, Director of Talent + Workforce for NC TECH. “With almost 18,000 tech openings, the Raleigh MSA has now surpassed the Charlotte/Concord/Gastonia MSA as the top region in the state for the first time.”

Fayetteville saw a 62 percent increase in April 2022 with 1,595 jobs. North Carolina also saw a 59 percent increase from April 2021 at 33,342 to 53,290 in April 2022.

The top 10 job titles statewide for April include senior software engineer, software engineer, project manager, data engineer, devops engineer, software developer, senior data engineer, java developer, network engineer, and software engineer II. 

The top 10 hirers in the state for those positions include Deloitte, General Dynamics Information Technology, Oracle, PricewarterhouseCoopers, Bank of America, Microsoft, Accenture, Wells Fargo, KMPG, and Ernst & Young. 

The Tech Talent Trends Alert is produced using Gartner’s TalentNeuron, a leading supplier of real-time business intelligence solutions for the talent marketplace.
