Opportunities for IT jobs are available wherever people are using computer technology. IT specialties exist across all industry sectors, from engineering and manufacturing through to entertainment and the arts, retail, wholesale and healthcare.
In the SME sector, IT managers, network designers, help-desk officers and support staff are constantly required.
There are also specialties too numerous to list, in disciplines as diverse as financial management, computer-aided design and graphics, inventory control and warehousing, retail POS (point of sale) systems, and general business-management applications.
Jobs in demand in general commercial IT include IT management, network management and administration, IT purchasing, system management and backup, and the all-important security management. Skills needed include Windows Server Administration, Unix, Java/J2EE, Windows Desktop configuration and support.
Don't forget that the retail sector is a large employer of people with IT knowledge. Given the extent of computer use in Australia, retail salespeople need to have a good understanding of computers to sell them.
