While high-profile tech layoffs have dominated the news cycle, a new survey from tech career marketplace Dice shows that tech job postings were up 25 percent from January to October, compared to last year.
The growth was powered by tech job postings in non-tech sectors, such as healthcare and finance, as organizations look to improve their digital presence.
In 2022, postings for software development engineers and back-end engineers more than doubled, compared to 2021, according to a Dec. 13 Dice news release.
"We've seen sustained strong demand for tech talent across key industries and sectors, as evidenced by our data showing an increase in job postings throughout 2022," Dice CEO Art Zeile said. "With the continuing string of mass layoff announcements from high-profile tech companies, it can look like the sky is falling for tech hiring. In reality, with each Silicon Valley tech job elimination, there are still multiple unfilled roles waiting for that tech professional."
