The present situation of IT industry in USA is growing position . So it creates huge job opportunities for techies. Here is the top ten job market list for tech related people.
Meanwhile, the tech job market has come roaring back almost to its pre-2001 heights, and skilled techies can pick and choose among job offers. Pay has gone up accordingly. A new survey of 1,000 tech employers by staffing firm Yoh (www.yoh.com) shows tech wages overall at their highest point since the dot-com bubble burst. Tech consultants now command an average of $83.72 per hour, hardware engineers earn $75.68, and ETL developers pull down $66.52. (To see the full study, go to www.yoh.com/YohIndex.)
