IT Jobs Overview
The IT department is the brains of a company. Without IT jobs, processing payroll, keeping inventory, and communicating would have to be done by hand and on paper. (Believe it or not, it once was.) The IT department enables businesses to be faster, smarter, more efficient, and more innovative. As part of an IT team, you'll work on projects that will help your organization to grow and become more efficient.
Some of the primary responsibilities in an IT job include developing, testing, and implementing IT business solutions. You'll help create strategies and policies for managing and securing information systems and monitor for data breaches as well as make recommendations for software, hardware, and cloud products. Businesses have a growing need for employees who can manage their IT systems—according to the Canadian Occupational Project System (COPS), there will be a shortage of qualified IT workers over the next decade.
