Q&A: How 2023 college grads can boost chances of finding their IT dream job
The unemployment rate for the IT remains at historic lows — just 2.2%. Meanwhile, more than 300,000 tech job postings remain open — a 17-year high — leaving nearly four in five employers struggling to fill job roles.
That means this year's college graduates should be looking at a target-rich environment for their resumes. Yet, entry-level tech job applicants often get no responses, even after shotgunning the job market with resumes. And many new graduates are unaware of free or inexpensive job-hunting resources available to them through staffing firms, online training, and professional networking sites.
