Information technology (IT) is currently the quickest growing industry segment of 2020. Every business in this day and age requires IT employees to be successful and stand out among competitors as well as have appropriate technical systems in place to perform all business operations efficiently and professionally. IT employees are in high demand around the globe and as more and more people graduate University it becomes a very competitive environment to work in. If you’re an IT specialist on a mission to be recruited make sure you have the essential skills, including:
Coding
Coding is one of the major IT skills required to be successful, so it is important that you obtain the ability to write and understand code. It can be very useful as an IT specialist to obtain the ability to code in multiple languages, as this will allow you to stand out in the industry since many systems are designed obtaining multiple languages. Assigning a code classification needs to be done properly for it to work and for others to understand what you have done. Code-writing is necessary for you to manage quality assurance during software development, a few things included in it are JavaScript, C Language, Cloud computing and Architecture. If you are in the IT industry and feel your coding skills may be lacking I defiantly recommend you work towards changing it.
Communication
Often as an IT professional you work among many different individuals and across many different teams, a lot of the time you might also find yourself explaining systems to people with absolutely no tech knowledge. As an IT professional you will also often be networking throughout the company to find the best technical solution for any issue that may appear, so having communication skills are more important than you might’ve thought. As in introvert in the IT industry you might struggle to communicate with workplace colleagues if you don’t effectively communicate properly, I’m not saying you need to be overly chatty to everyone you see but make sure you make an effort to communicate effectively among work based conversations.
