(Current edition: April 2012)

***Produced for and provided FREE to all Foote Partners benchmark products customers.***

 

This 51 page report from Foote Partners IT Insider Workforce Trends Series contains constantly updated comprehensive market trend data and expert analysis of pay and demand for 540 IT skills and certifications in North America. Two of our most popular benchmark surveys serve as its foundation: 2012 IT Skills & Certifications Pay IndexTM and 2012 IT Skills Volatility IndexTM, both updated quarterly. Also informing this report: 

  • Rigorous proprietary statistical skills pay survey research involving 2,350 employers and 127,000 IT professionals 
  • In-depth interviews with more than 600 IT executives and hiring managers on their workforce plans and strategies for 2012
  • Comprehensive, up-to-date IT spending surveys  

Find out what's happening in the IT skills and certifications marketplace, including which individual skills and certs are hot (and cold) right now in the It labor market and what's driving the decisions of employers in matching skills requirements to business requirements. 

Questions these reports answer: 

  • DECISIONS: If I delay the acquisition of specific skills and people currently budgeted for the several months, will it end up costing me more, less, or the same down the road?

  • HIGHEST PAYING, HARDEST TO FIND: What are the highest paying IT skills and certifications? Will they get harder to find and more expensive to acquire?

  • PAY PERFORMANCE: For the 540 most popular IT skills and certifications, which ones gained or lost value, and by how much, in the past 3, 6, 12, and 24 months?

  • VOLATILITY: How have economic conditions focused workforce and staffing strategies and tactics, resulting in the highest volatility in skills pay and demand since 2001?

  • DIVERGENCE: What areas of IT are counter trending the market.... actually increasing in value against recession-driven declines in market value for other categories of IT talent?
