Despite the economic stresses resulting from COVID-19, roles in software development and testing continue to be in high demand as companies are increasingly applying technological innovation to how they talk to customers and how their workplace functions.
As companies accelerate their digital transformation activities in some key areas, we can expect to see new technologies, customer preferences, and development/testing methodologies emerge over the next 12-24 months. Top trends to watch include:
The market for development and testing talent extends far beyond organisations that make and sell technology products, also including banks, finance companies, retailers and healthcare providers. Demand for these technology professionals will only grow as organisations invest more in digital offerings and operations, making it important for employers that they can access the right skills and talent to meet their changing needs.
