CompTIA introduces new tech job posting optimizer

CompTIA, provider of endor-neutral IT certifications, today announced the Tech Job Posting Optimizer, optimize.comptia.org, in order to help employers expand their pipelines and seek out overlooked or untapped talent.

The free, web-based platform offers a range of tech job templates and data tools intended to optimize postings for skills, qualifications, and inclusivity oriented to the U.S. labor market. 

According to the company, of the over 500,000 job postings for entry-level tech positions in 2022, 57% of employers limited their search to candidates with a four-year degree or higher. 

Additionally, for employers looking to fill entry-level cybersecurity roles the number one listed industry-recognized certification is a managerial-level credential that requires advanced experience. 

The company stated that while this over-spec’ing among job postings does not negatively impact employers, it does have a downside for candidates as 55% reported some level of a “confidence gap” when looking for a new role. 

“CompTIA’s optimizer provides a practical solution to a market-wide issue that every company can leverage and benefit from. Skills-based hiring solutions like The Optimizer help illuminate incredible, previously overlooked, qualified candidates,” said Kelly Cure, co-founder of Skillful.ly.

CompTIA’s Tech Job Posting Optimizer platform offers a check of bias language, salary curves, and a job posting best practices guide. The platform is also backed by labor market data from Lightcast and Infogr8.

Although they collaborate to publish new websites on the internet, web developers and web designers play very different roles. To put these job possibilities into perspective, consider the construction of a house. To create a vision for the house, including the visual components, the space planning and layout, the materials, and the overall appearance and sense of the space, you need an architect. That said, to translate an idea into a building, you need construction professionals to take those architectural drawings and put them into practice.

2022: The year of hybrid work

Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are declaring 20
