07/22/2008 IT Job Market Is Poor At Best
-
Janco continues to review the IT job market for CIOs and CTOs. but sees
few bright sposts. A Job Market Index just released found very few
among the unemployed management ranks willing to leave the job search for their
own venture. The compnay doing the survey polled 3,000 recently
"discharged" managers and executives. They found:

The startup rate among unemployed managers and executives fell to
4.3 percent in the second quarter, compared to 7.2 percent in the first
quarter. Last year, 6 percent of job seekers abandoned the traditional job
market for entrepreneurship in the second quarter, according to the
study. The second quarter figure was the lowest since the fourth quarter
of 2000, when only 3.5 percent of job seekers started their own
firms.

07/17/2008 Is IT Spending on the Rise or Falling
-
CDW has reported that IT staffing and spending is on the rise.
CDW says, "The past two months have seen IT executives grow
increasing bullish about the future of their organizations, according to the
results of the most recent CDW IT Monitor, a bimonthly survey that gauges IT budget
management and spending plans and tracks the perceived value of business
technology.

The CEO of Janco Associates, Victor Janulaitis
disagrees. Mr. Janulaitis said, "We are seeing enterprises of all sizes
begin to be more cautious - they are now deferring both hiring and
spending."

07/10/2008 IT Job Unemployment Is LOW
-
(CIO Insight) Unemployment among computer-related
jobs hovers near historic lows as the U.S. information technology workforce tops
4 million for the first time.
The size of the IT workforce in the United States has topped 4
million workers for the first time last quarter, according to CIO
Insight's analysis of U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data. And the number
of employed IT pros reached 3,956,000 in the second quarter of 2008, also a
record high.

The IT unemployment rate inched up one-tenth of a percentage
point last quarter to 2.3 percent, but still hovers near historic lows. That is
in contrast to overall unemployment, which last quarter stood at 4.7 percent,
more than double the IT jobless rate. (In June, overall unemployment stood at
5.5 percent for the second consecutive month, after shedding 62,000 jobs that
month. Comparable numbers arenÂ’t available for computer-related
occupations.)
Why would IT employment remain robust as unemployment rises in
most other job categories? IT performs a critical role in business productivity,
and the efficiencies it brings are crucial for employers looking to trim costs -
including payrolls - as fuel and related expenditures soar and the economy and
dollar weakens. In addition, companies today cannot operate without functioning
IT systems, so certain business technology skills cannot be eliminated if a
company wants to remain competitive.
A year earlier, the IT unemployment rate stood at 2.1 percent,
with 3,599,000 workers employed in IT and 77,000 jobless and looking for
positions in the field, for an IT workforce size of 3,675,000.
With 4,050,000 managers, professionals and other staffers
holding or seeking computer-related positions last quarter, the IT workforce has
grown by 10.2 percent over the past four quarters.
Another sign of a strong IT economy: the number of workers
employed by IT services firms rose by 56,100 this past year to 1,414,400, a 4.1
percent increase, according to last monthÂ’s BLS establishment survey of some
160,000 businesses and government agencies covering about 400,000 worksites. The
active sample includes about one-third of all nonfarm payroll workers.
The increase in IT services employment reflects the continuing
need by companies for outsourcers to manage corporate IT infrastructures as well
as provide hard-to-find but needed skills to develop and support new
applications and systems.
Not every person employed by IT services firms - officially
labeled by the government as computer systems design and related services - is
an IT pro, but a majority are. A 2006 government report estimates that 53
percent of IT services firms' workers hold IT jobs such as programmers; software
engineers; computer, network systems and data communications analysts; or
database, network and systems administrators. Another 3 percent are computer and
IS managers. The remaining employees—44 percent of payrolls—encompass non-IT
managers and administrative and operational support personnel, including those
in finance, human resources and sales.
Besides the establishment survey, the government also queries
60,000 households to determine employment and unemployment in the U.S. For our
analysis, we use a BLS quarterly report that aggregates the monthly reports and
details employment in hundreds of occupation categories. The government tracks
seven major computer-related job categories: computer scientists and systems
analysts, computer programmers, computer software engineers, computer support
specialists, database administrators, network and computer systems
administrators and network systems and data communications specialists plus
computer and information systems managers.
CIO Insight analyzes these eight occupation categories to
determine current IT employment conditions. Because these IT professions
comprises less than 3 percent of the overall workforce, and each occupation
categoryÂ’s size on its own would be statistically unreliable, CIO Insight
aggregates the last four quarters to determine each quarter's workforce,
employment and unemployment levels. For example, we added BLS data from the last
two quarters of 2007 and the first two quarters of 2008 then divided by four to
determine second-quarter 2008 data. Statisticians and economists say aggregating
four quarters worth of data makes them more statically reliable than just using
one quarter's worth of data.
