Cybersecurity Engineer

According to Careerkarma, in 2021 the demand for Information Security Engineers will grow by 31%, and the average global salary will reach almost $ 100,000 per year.
It's not surprising that such specialists will be in high demand in the new year: with the popularization of online-processes, as well as the increase in the number of remote employees, the risk of online fraud and theft of valuable company data has also significantly increased.
This encourages a large number of IT companies not only to hire Cybersecurity Specialists but also to open entire departments dealing with information security.

Go Developers

According to the international rating PYPL, (the rating calculates the number of requests by programming languages in Google, integrating data from Google Trends) Go is actively gaining momentum, becoming an increasingly popular technology in the world.

We judge the demand for Golang developers not only by the PYPL rating, but we've also studied the TIOBE index. The TIOBE index shows the number of web pages in the world that are dedicated to a particular programming language. According to the index, the growth of pages, connected to Go language, has increased by 1.3% over the previous year.
In addition, according to the Lucky Hunter statistics, the request for Go developers remains at a consistently high level, and the trend won't change this year.

Mobile App Developers

In the previous article on the in-demand IT specialities, we also included Mobile App Developers, but not all of them. Only Android Developers were included in the list. Today, the gap in demand for iOS and Android developers is not so noticeable nowadays.

The increase in demand for Mobile App Developers is happening because, in a world where all the processes are switching to online, mobile applications for many companies serve as a new, potentially promising sales channel.
Almost every modern business (especially when this refers to the B2C sector) feels the need to create a mobile application. It doesn't matter what the company does. Selling via mobile apps is appropriate even for a small business like a pet store or flower shop.

Timeless classics
Along with the growth of some IT professions, "traditional" tech specialists are also in high demand. These are Python, C ++, Java developers. Still, it should be noted that, according to the latest TIOBE data (data is updated monthly), Java slightly lost to the C language in the last study, taking the second place.

Python and C ++ are ranked 3 and 4, respectively.
