The year ahead looks promising for IT professionals seeking new positions. Employers are pushing for hiring plans, which remain the market for job seekers. IT salaries are expected to rise in 2018, especially for those struggling to find skills.
According to Robert Half Technology, certain skills such as network engineer, Linux / UNIX administration, VoIP and Windows administration are particularly beneficial in the area of networks.
According to the 2018 Talent and Recruiting Specialist Salary Guide, job applicants with these four high-demand talents could see an additional 5% to 10% increase in starting salary.
This report analyzes salaries for more than 75 technical positions, including eight telecommunications and networking roles and two network-specific security roles. Of the ten telecommunications and networking roles, network architects will receive the most rewards next year, according to Robert Half Technology.
The most experienced network architects can expect to pay $ 190,000 in 2018. This salary level represents the maximum reward (95th percentile) for network architects. By comparison, per the guide, network architects in grade 75 can expect a starting salary of $ 160,750, grade 50 can expect $ 134,000, and grade 25 can earn $ 112,750.
This is the first year that Robert Half Technology has ranked reward ranks by percentiles on the annual salary guide. The categories are designed to help hiring managers weigh candidates' skills, experience levels, and the complexity of their role in bidding.
According to the company's analysis, the candidates who deserve the highest salaries have a high degree of experience, including professional qualifications, but their roles can be very complex and more strategic than usual. At the top level, the competition for talent can be fierce.
Candidates for the 75th percentile are more experienced and may have professional qualifications than a typical strong skill set, but their roles are quite complex or quite competitive for talent. It can be a cutthroat industry.
Mid-point candidates (50th percentile) have the skills necessary to meet the job requirements and their role may be of average complexity or in an industry with moderate talent competition. ..
Candidates for the 25th percentile have less experience and skills that require development. The company says recruiting at this level can be done in industries where there is less competition for talent or in smaller, less complex organizations.
This is an overview of the expected salary range for 2018 for each network-related degree. Numbers are for starting rewards and reflect base salary only. It does not include bonuses, incentives or other forms of rewards.
Skills and experience are the main deciding factors for starting salary, but there are also geographic differences. The company's report includes salary adjustments you can expect depending on where your IT professionals are located in the United States.
Still, Robert Half Technology cautions that companies run the risk of losing candidates because IT takes too long to make hiring decisions.
Of the CIOs surveyed, 41% said the hiring process took longer than expected and took an average of 4.5 weeks to fill a role at the personnel level. From a candidate's perspective, more than two-thirds of IT professionals say they lose interest in the job without follow-up within two weeks of the interview.
“Recruiting quickly and efficiently means that today's best IT professionals know their value and are ready to outperform the market. When creating a package, it also means considering a set of coveted incentives like contracts, health insurance, generous vacations and career development opportunities, "the company said in its 2018 salary guide. I am." And for many high-demand candidates, flexible hours and remote work arrangements remain attractive perks. "
Robert Half Technology's salary forecasts are based on actual employment in North America, as well as an analysis of the demand for each position, available talent supply, and other market conditions.
