Computer-software engineers: Job Outlook

Maybe the software industry (for software-engineers) is not looking that bad after all. According to Time, computer-software engineers (or applications developers), is one of the top 15 jobs with the largest projected increases for 2000-2010; it’s actually number 9 in the biggest gainers category, expecting 380,000 new jobs.

They say, “As long as computer upgrades are constant, so will be the jobs.”

I also think that software engineers will be in great demand in the next decade. Why? It’s still a very young field, and a lot of companies will need the engineers to develop software properly — according to the software-engineering standards. Good for us, software engineers, developers!
