Tech hiring heated up as the COVID vaccine rollout picked up pace in the first quarter of 2021, according to technology job posting site Dice.
The Dice Q1 2021 Tech Job Report showed that job postings were up 28% nationwide when compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, a strong performance that capped off four months of growth. Dice reported more than 307,000 open tech positions in March, and said 60 percent of the top 50 employers created more job postings in the first quarter of 2021 when compared to the prior year. Tech hiring was at near record levels prior to the pandemic, and the data in our Q1 Tech Job Report shows that the demand for skilled technology talent is ramping up considerably, said Dice CEO Art Zeile in a press statement. The continuous surge in tech job postings, combined with the low tech unemployment rate, offers a positive growth outlook for technologist hiring and for the landscape as a whole for the remainder of 2021.
