This paper describes an updated approach to identifying “Hot Technologies” and introduces the concept of “In Demand” technology skills.
- “Hot Technologies” are software and technology requirements most frequently included across all employer job postings.
- “In Demand” technology skills are software and technology requirements frequently included in the employer job postings for a particular occupation.
The purpose of the two designations is to enable O*NET customers to learn which technology skills employers in the US economy are presently emphasizing and searching for while recruiting employees. Both are incorporated in the primary O*NET websites and available for download from the O*NET Resource Center.
