IT skills 'vital in the workplace'

IT skills 'vital in the workplace' IT skills are becoming a crucial part of the workplace and are a significant advantage in the jobs market, it has been claimed.

Elspeth Farrar, communications director for the Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services, said such skills are highly beneficial in today's competitive market.

She noted that there are now very few jobs which do not call for some level of basic knowledge of typical office programmes, which may be of note to graduates about to enter the workplace.

"You only have to be in an office or a work environment when computer systems go down to realise how much we now are all completely dependent on computers and technology to actually function," Ms Farrar says.

Meanwhile, Satnam Brar, managing director of IT recruiter Maximus, recently noted that recruitment in the sector is still strong despite the challenging jobs market.

"We are finding growth in a lot of the intelligence markets," he noted.
