Technology has become the power of our generation, and its demands are always high. In fact, every business entity or outfit needs an IT-oriented person to be employed. However, having the in-demand and required skills that could put you there is what everyone is striving for.


Technical skills are in high demand by employers everywhere, so trying to secure your skills in the ever-growing tech world is a must for everyone who wants to be part of the new emerging AI and tech world. If you have technical skills and expertise, then you shouldn't have to strive to find a job because employers are already looking for you.


Thousands of companies flood LinkedIn and other related platforms each and every day to search for techno-savvy experts to employ on a part-time or full-time basis. Computer-related skills, programming skills, and technical design skills dominate the skills employers want everywhere in the world. According to Google, Upwork, Fiverr, and LinkedIn, the courses I am about to unleash are the most in-demand tech skills every employer is looking for, and they are what you need to upgrade yourself on.


1. Mobile and Software development

Mobile apps and software programs that enable mobile phones and computers to run and function are hotcakes everywhere. Having a skill in mobile apps and software development is such a highly demanded skill that one should be ready to upgrade his expertise. Creating apps for different devices is a plus, and it will not be hard to find a job anywhere given the widespread use of apps nowadays.


2. Blockchain or crypto development

Cryptocurrency is the money of the future. With the emerging AI, chatbots, and many more applications of machine learning, blockchain will be the currency many online platforms will prefer in the future. People are finding it hard to trade with their credit cards or mobile money apps because of hacking and identity theft.


                                                                                                  Blockchain technology is in high demand

Many companies are looking to integrate and implement blockchain technology in their day-to-day operations. Learning about blockchain technology and its decentralized networks is in high demand.


3. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Search engine optimization is a very lucrative skill in the digital and social media marketing worlds. Search engine optimization is what defines digital marketing. Knowing a great deal in the digital and web development areas without knowing anything about SEO is very bad.


Search engines make the internet find your website, provided your website has been optimized well for any search engine to find it. With a search engine, you will understand how search engines like Google or Bing use keywords to grade websites. Since most companies don't want to pay a digital marketing agency for SEO, expertise in SEO is in high demand by every company that has a website or social media channel.


4. AI and machine learning

Artificial intelligence is now taking over a lot of manpower jobs. Employees are afraid that AI will replace humans in the future. Companies and people nowadays need a device or systems that can outwit human thinking by thinking ten times fatter than humans. 


   AI and machine learning is a highly demanding job skill nowadays

With all the necessary rapid growth in the technology field, companies are looking for other methods that will help them manage and perform complex tasks easier and more quickly than humans.


5. Website design and development

There is a difference between website design and website development, but knowing either of the two will help you secure a job in any field you find yourself in. Every outfit needs a website nowadays, and knowing how to design or develop a website is a nice way to land that job you are striving for.


Designing responsive and interactive websites and web apps is a highly demanding job that will forever remain in high demand as long as the internet exists.


6. Video editing and production

Tiktok and Instagram reels have redefined the power of video production. People love to watch videos to understand content rather than read a long, tall list. It takes someone who can read to understand, but with video, it is easy to catch a glimpse.


Having video editing and filming skills, or even quality photography skills, is what employers are looking for. There are plenty of digital marketing companies that are looking for video editors to create high-quality videos for social media campaigns and TikTok ads.
