Why should you work in IT?
· Flexibility – For most IT jobs, most of your entire role is based online, meaning that you have the freedom to work at home, in an office, at a café or even nearby to a sunny beach (did you know that IT jobs in Spain are on the rise?)
· High earning – Now more than ever, excellent IT and technology skills have a high price tag. Most of our lives are becoming digitised or automated in some way and knowing your way around software could earn you a seriously lucrative career.
· Autonomy – the market is saturated with IT jobs and there are simply not enough skilled professionals to fill the vacancies. So, you have the freedom to choose a role and a way of working that best suit you. Some benefit from contracting – working shorter periods of time within different projects – whilst others prefer a permanent role, both of which are abundantly available.
