The prevailing dominance of computers and mobile devices in all aspects of our lives is making the job of PEAK Technical Consulting, the Horsham information technology and engineering recruiting agency, much easier, writes Erin McNelis for Bucks County Courier Times.

The omnipresence of information systems and networks has ensured that unemployment in the technology field is significantly lower than in other areas.

Computer network administration is currently one of the fastest growing positions, followed by software development, writing mobile applications, company-specific software development, and research level engineering.

“The technology field is where the jobs are,” says Debra Geoghan, interim dean of the STEM program at Bucks County Community College.

Christine Bogan, a staffing manager at PEAK Technical Consulting, has plenty of experience placing employees with companies that are offering very competitive salaries to draw in potential hires.

“I recently placed entry level junior software developers and system analysts,” said Bogan. “One company was willing to pay for travel and living expenses.”

According to Bogan, there has been an increase in job openings since the start of the year and the agency is working hard to fill them.
