Demand for IT pros growing across all types of industries
February 11, 2011
“Technology jobs are increasing more rapidly than other disciplines,
second only to the health care profession,” said Chris Carlson, regional
manager with Aureus Group. “IT jobs are also one of the nigh paying careers
in demand. Relatively new career paths having to do with computers are
popping up everywhere.” Healthcare information management professionals and
healthcare information technology are in great demand, Carlson said. “This
is because of the new regulations requiring electronic medical record
enhancements and automation overhaul. The goal is to use computers and
digital technology in medical facilities to increase the efficiency and
effectiveness of clinical healthcare for patients and providers,” she said.
“A bachelor’s degree in computer science combined with a master’s in
business administration is very desirable,’ Carlson said. “The business
savvy, financial understanding and interpersonal skills intertwined with the
technical education will definitely position a candidate for success.”
