Current trends suggest 2007 will see a continuation of 2006’s healthy IT job environment. Hiring will be driven by investments in several key areas, including network security, wireless communications, business intelligence systems, and Web applications. Some analysts point to an increase in tech start-ups, fueled by venture capital firms moving back to technology from a cooling real estate market.

A recent survey of CIOs revealed that the most in-demand skills are Windows administration, Network administration (Cisco, Nortel, Novell), Database management (Oracle, SQL Server, DB2), Wireless network management, and Firewall administration.
