March 12, 2014

The number of information technology jobs in the U.S. rose by 0.38 percent in February from the previous month to a total of approximately 4.6 million, according to the TechServe Alliance’s IT employment index.

Meanwhile, the number of U.S. engineering jobs rose by 0.20 percent in February from the previous month to approximately 2.5 million jobs.

“Following impressive numbers in January, I am pleased to see that IT and engineering job growth continued on a strong trajectory in February,” said TechServe Alliance CEO Mark Roberts. “I am very bullish on the future. Absent a geopolitical or macroeconomic shock, we should see strong demand for IT and engineering talent throughout 2014.”
