What are the essential skills for job hunting in 2019 AI is among the top 10 most profitable careers in 2019
Global Network & Jieyou Talent Network jointly released: In the top 10 most popular occupations in 2019, cloud computing software development engineers, data experts, and AI software development engineers are on the list, and cloud computing and AI dominate the screen.
What kind of job is better in 2019?
Recently, PayScale, an American salary statistics website, released a report that took stock of the hottest occupations in 2018 and predicted the most in-demand areas in 2019 - cloud computing and AI.
In addition to the summary report on the PayScale website, Sun Zhiyuan also provided a 2018 global university employability ranking released by Times Higher Education, which shows the employability level of universities and the skills of graduates that Chinese employers value more.
In addition, we have also made a brief summary of this year's BAT school recruitment, hoping to serve as a reference for students, employers, and those who want to work in the technology industry in 2019.
The hottest career in 2018: full-stack software development
Overall, economic trends throughout 2018 indicate a strong economy: strong GDP growth and surprising corporate profits, especially in the technology sector. Most notably, the current unemployment rate in the United States is at its lowest level since 1968.
The 2018 boom was largely due to the growth of the tech industry, with half of the 10 fastest-growing jobs coming from the tech sector.
As you can see in the table below, full-stack software developers saw the largest growth in 2018, with a 572% increase compared to 2017. There is a strong demand for highly skilled workers across all walks of life, and the salaries of tech employees are also growing rapidly, far outpacing the salary growth of non-tech jobs. The hottest jobs in the United States in 2018
Top 5 fastest-growing occupations in 2018:
Full-stack software development
Director of Community Engagement
Lead graphic designer
Customer Success Team Manager
Employee engagement manager
The demand for highly skilled workers has led to severe labor supply shortages across the U.S. economy. Many employers feel a shortage of talent for STEM careers and are increasingly focusing on employee experience to keep their highly skilled employees engaged and happy at work. As a result, in 2018, the role of Employment Engagement Managers saw a 192% increase in salary.
In 2018, there was also significant job growth in non-engineering roles in the tech industry and technology-adjacent roles such as digital marketing.
As brands compete with each other for consumer attention, the importance of social media in various industries is also on the rise. As a result, the salary for the Directors of Community Engagement position increased by 294% in 2018.
It was also found that the salary of the lead graphic designer increased by 234%, reflecting the increasing demand for marketing assets by the enterprise. Because these two roles are critical to an organization's success, it's no surprise that job opportunities in this field are growing rapidly.
Top 10 most popular occupations in 2019: cloud computing, AI annual income of $100,000
2018 was relatively prosperous, but 2019 may not be easy. At present, major U.S. manufacturers are laying off employees, Sino-US relations are injecting uncertainty into an already tense market, and real wages of workers have not increased significantly.
Although job growth will not be limited to the tech sector by 2019, the proliferation and adoption of technology in all sectors of the economy means that tech jobs will continue to thrive. The most in-demand areas of work in 2019 will be:
Cloud computing
Artificial intelligence
Big data
Cybersecurity
Virtual/Augmented Reality
Digital marketing
In the coming year, jobs related to cloud computing and artificial intelligence will see the greatest growth. Cloud computing has become a staggering pillar of profit in the modern economy and the focus of the world's tech giants. In the coming year, as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and other cloud computing services grow, and as cloud computing services expand into more industries, cloud computing software developers will be in great demand.
The field of artificial intelligence has seen the widespread application of cutting-edge technologies and massive data collection, which even affects informal jobs such as babysitting. AI designers are in short supply, and even non-profit organizations pay extremely generous salaries for AI software engineers. In 2019, the demand for these engineers, as well as their salaries, is likely to increase significantly.
Both cloud computing and AI require large amounts of data to be successful, which is good news for data scientists. As businesses continue to emphasize collecting and leveraging big data, both demand and salaries for data scientists will grow.
Cybersecurity analysts are also in luck. The collection of massive amounts of data increases the risk and cost of cybersecurity threats. Ongoing large-scale data breaches have shaken consumer confidence and increased government regulation of the tech sector. Many companies are trying to strengthen their cybersecurity teams to protect customer data. As a result, the demand for cybersecurity professionals is expected to grow significantly in 2019.
In addition, the domestic media "Reference News" also lists the hottest occupations in 2019 and their median income based on the prediction of the "Salary Table" website:
Cloud Computing Software Development Engineer ($108,000)
Data Specialist ($98,400)
AI Software Development Engineer ($93,300)
Cybersecurity Engineer ($92,600)
Virtual Reality Engineer ($89,000)
Mobile Application Software Development Engineer ($88,000)
Drone Operator ($57,900)
Digital Marketing Analyst ($49,600)
Clerk who sells marijuana in a store or dispensary ($25,600)
Dispatched Worker (None)
Layoffs! Internet companies have been recruited
Major manufacturers in the United States are laying off employees, and in China, Internet companies are also experiencing a moment of layoffs. At present, Internet companies that have reported layoffs have covered large companies such as Alibaba and Tencent to small enterprises such as Meizu and Lagou.
Xinzhiyuan sorted out the domestic Internet companies that have been rumored to lay off employees this year:
Among them, Country Garden is more special, this sudden real estate company has just launched the "Future Leader Program" this year, and has released a large number of information on recruiting robots and artificial intelligence doctors on major recruitment platforms.
In addition to layoffs, the growth of social recruitment is not optimistic. The number of recruitments has declined overall. In Q3 2018, it is expected that 23.9% of enterprises will increase the number of recruitments nationwide, and 18.7% will reduce the number of enterprises in the country, with a net increase of 5.2%
South China is in the best condition. 26.7% of enterprises are expected to expand enrollment, with a net increase of 9.7%;
West China District is expected to keep the proportion of enterprises that keep the recruitment volume unchanged, with a decrease of 27.9% and a net increase of -3.9%;
Compared with Q3 2017, the recruitment plan showed a downward trend, and compared with Q2 2018, the recruitment demand of enterprises began to slow down.
AI school recruitment portraits of Internet giants: ML and CV resumes are enough
After reading social recruitment, let's pay attention to colleges and universities.
In terms of the employment of fresh graduates this year, New Zhiyuan has reported the news of the annual salary of AI fresh doctoral students of 800,000 yuan, and learned about the school recruitment situation of BAT for reference.
According to the information provided by Tencent Recruitment, Tencent AI job recruitment has several characteristics:
ML and CV positions have the largest number of resumes, totaling more than 80% of all AI-related positions. Among the students applying for AI positions, 10% have doctors, 85% have master's degrees, and the number of undergraduates is less than 5%.
The top 5 colleges and universities in terms of the number of deliveries are the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhejiang University, Tsinghua University, Beiyou, and Beihang, and Beijing has an overwhelming advantage from the situation of the candidate school's city, followed by Xi'an, Wuhan, Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Guangzhou.
This year, the popularity of AI-related positions in the market is very high, and the overall supply exceeds demand. The supply and demand in the CV direction are seriously unbalanced, and the delivery/recruitment ratio is higher than that of product positions. There are too many laboratories that do CV, but there is not that much demand in the market. This situation is expected to continue until next year, and it is recommended that the class of 2020 plan early.
It is not difficult to see from the description that machine learning, robotics, and AI areas such as voice and video will continue to be the focus of talent acquisition and development.
Next is Ali.
At present, Alibaba has received the most job openings for NLP algorithm engineers and algorithm engineers in the field of computer vision.
The specific trend of Alibaba's current AI positions is the shortage of high-end AI talents, and the total number of young AI engineers is growing rapidly.
In terms of AI engineer profile analysis, 46% of engineers with master's degree or above, 4% of doctoral and postdoctoral fellows, and 96% of bachelor's degree or above.
It can be seen that Alibaba shows no signs of slowing down in the recruitment of AI talents, on the contrary, Alibaba's AI talents are still in a state of "shortage".
From the perspective of AI positions, machine learning, data mining, natural language processing engineers, and computer vision algorithm R&D engineers are some of the more popular positions in BAT.
College students' employability is not good? There are only 4 universities in Chinese mainland
The employment of students is inseparable from the employability of colleges and universities.
The Times Higher Education recently released a 2018 Global University Employability Rankings, which counted nearly 75,000 votes, and in the end, the top 10 global university employability rankings were: The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology ranked 16th, making it the highest-ranked university in China.
Peking University became the only Chinese mainland university in the top 20, ranking 19th.
In the top 50, there are only four Chinese universities:
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University(36), Fudan(44)
Among the 51 to 100, Chinese universities have:
Tsinghua University (52), The University of Hong Kong (63), The Chinese University of Hong Kong (88)
Times also ranks the ten countries with total employability scores by year, and China ranks sixth, a huge gap with the United States, which ranks first. Here is an analysis of the situation in China. The slower increase in employability in Chinese universities may be due to different learning and teaching styles.
Jisun Jung, an assistant professor at the Faculty of Education at the University of Hong Kong, said that today's employers are increasingly emphasizing "transferable skills and soft skills", but Chinese universities lack this part. (Data Algorithm Engineer)
In addition, Soviet higher education also had a long-standing historical influence in China, which meant that subject knowledge was very narrowly focused on a few compulsory courses, and students did not have many choices. This curriculum structure does not align with current employer requirements, such as interdisciplinary thinking.
China's differing attitudes towards soft skills are also reflected in employer feedback recorded in the 2018 Global University Employability Survey, which forms this year's ranking of universities and industry partnerships.
In addition, Thames also conducted a survey in China, 76% of companies believe that hard skills are a very important factor in success, and 67% believe that soft skills are very important. But in the United States and most European countries, as well as in Japan and South Korea, the view is reversed: more companies emphasize that soft skills are very important.
In the United States, more employers (90%) see critical thinking as very important, while in China (75%) believe adaptability and collaboration are more likely to be considered important skills.
