ARMONK, N.Y., April 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- With U.S. employers faced with filling more than half-a-million open technology jobs, five "New Collar" IBMers today shared tips and insights for job seekers interested in high-tech careers.
These IBM (NYSE: IBM) employees work in some of the technology industry's fastest growing fields and acquired their high-tech skills through a mix of non-traditional routes such as coding camps, community colleges and 21st century vocational training.
In their New Collar roles, which prioritize having the right mix of skills over specific degrees and where a four-year college degree is not always required, these employees work in strategic areas of IBM's business – from cybersecurity and cloud computing to digital design of products and services. Their guidance to anyone considering a technology career includes:
– Savannah Worth, Software Designer, San Francisco, CA.
– Griff Griffin, Cybersecurity Architect, Dubuque, IA.
-Cecelia Schartiger, Cybersecurity Compliance Expert.
– Randy Tolentino, Software Developer, Austin, TX.
-Ty Tyner, Designer, Austin, TX.
Last year, New Collar IBMers, like those featured here, accounted for 10-15 percent of the company's U.S. hiring. These opportunities are also helping spread technology-driven opportunity to parts of the country historically underserved by the tech industry, in places like West Virginia, Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri and Texas. IBM has been actively advocating for education reforms essential to helping more workers build the skills needed for success in New Collar careers.
