“There is no reason to be too optimistic in the current economic situation.”

The North Carolina Technology Association has published a sobering report on the IT sector in the state.

We believe that demand for IT professionals in the state has peaked and will only expand again after general economic growth is demonstrated. The national IT job market average declined 3.7% in June.

Without a change in economic policy, growth will lag and so will the IT sector. The health field seems to be the only area of job creation, and that’s primarily due to regulations that, sadly, serve to stifle overall growth.
