In-Demand IT Careers

CompTIA Tech Town data also illustrates how U.S. technology jobs are projected to grow over the next year and next 5 years. For example, demand for information security analysts is expected to grow by 4% within the next year and by 16% by 2025. In theory, working toward a core occupation that is expected to grow means that qualified IT pros will be in demand. When you’re in demand, you typically make more money.

Let’s take this a step further with the CompTIA IT Salary Calculator. For example, if you search “cybersecurity analysts and engineers” without a specified location, you can see that salary numbers range from $57,000 to $158,000. While that’s quite a swing, it does represent the potential earning growth throughout the lifecycle of a career because typically someone would start their career on the low end of the range and move up as they gain experience and knowledge.

But let’s drill down a bit. For comparison’s sake, we’ll look at an experience level of mid-career. Let’s also take a look at Columbus, Ohio – since it ranks no. 1 on the Tech Town cost of living list. Now we can see that the overall median salary for a mid-level cybersecurity analyst or engineer is $94,720.
