The NC Technology Association (NC TECH) has released its snapshot of available IT positions in the state for the month of November, broken down in several ways (top listings by MSA, job type, skills, certifications).
According to NC Tech’s monthly snapshot, there were a reported 264 IT jobs posted for Fayetteville during the month of November.
“The November IT job postings remained relatively flat compared to October and September. This trend aligns with the general employment reports both in the United States and specifically in North Carolina, as well as mirroring the usual slowdown in hiring during the final quarter of the year,” explained Andrea Fleming, Director of Talent and Workforce Development at NC TECH, in a press release. “Has the downturn begun to ease? Are we poised for a more promising job outlook in 2024? This year has been a period of uncertainty for the economy, and many are eagerly anticipating a fresh start in the new year.”
Apart from the IT Job Posting figures, NC TECH's monthly report highlights the most sought-after credentials. “Cybersecurity expertise remains the dominant skillset sought after by NC employers,” added Fleming in a press release. Highlighting the Bureau of Labor Statistics' forecast of a substantial 32 percent growth in these positions over the next decade, Fleming emphasized North Carolina's favorable stance in accommodating this increase. She highlighted in a press release, “The state's influx of new residents and the diverse educational opportunities in cybersecurity place North Carolina in an advantageous position for future growth.”
