IT Jobs Overview

Information Technology (IT) professionals help organisations create and maintain their hardware, software, and computer infrastructure. Those working in IT jobs are highly skilled in computer security, programming, development, troubleshooting, and technical support.

There's never been a better time to consider a career in IT. The UK tech industry is booming, and IT careers are among the highest paying in the UK labour market. In today’s digital age, we are plugged into technology more than ever before and with the popularity of virtual office environments and rise of artificial intelligence, the need for advanced technology will continue to grow.

Career opportunities in the IT sector span across almost every industry, including healthcare, education, entertainment, science, and engineering. So, whether you are passionate about web development, video game design, cyber security, or computer programming - there is likely a suitable role for you.

To explore more specific IT jobs, you may want to look at these related roles:

Education and Skills for IT Jobs

There are a few different avenues to explore to get into an IT career:

  • university degree or postgraduate qualification in an IT-related subject such as computer science, engineering, cyber security, or software application development
  • apprenticeship with a participating UK employer, where you can combine academic studies with practical work experience
  • accreditation through a professional body such as the The Chartered Institute for IT
  • work your way up by starting in a junior or entry-level position, learn on the job and move into a more experienced role

Each of these avenues will have its own requirements to start, but you will generally be expected to have some A levels. Depending on the job position, you may be required to have extensive knowledge of computers and excellent troubleshooting skills.

An IT-related degree or certification can also give you a competitive edge in this job market. There are plenty of online IT training and certification courses that you can sign up for. The basic courses won’t cost you anything, whereas the more advanced ones will come with a fee.

You may also have transferable skills from a previous career such as project management, negotiation, and problem-solving that will prove extremely valuable to a tech recruiter. In addition, we also have specific job descriptions for various IT roles. These include the types of qualifications and skills typically required.

Update Your CV for IT Jobs

If you want to stand out from the competition, you will have to put in a little extra work to make sure your CV is updated and optimised. It is always a good idea to develop a customised version of your CV that is tailored to the specific job position. You should include any specific IT skills you have such as coding, data analysis, computer programming and CMS platforms. Using these keywords will help you get noticed. Monster has an array of CV tips and advice articles to help get you started.

Make sure to include a cover letter with your application, explaining in detail why you will be a great asset to the company. We have plenty of cover letter advice and tips to help you get the job you deserve.

Interviewing for IT Jobs

Once your interview is scheduled, you will want to prepare for the big day. Give your confidence a boost and take the time to practise answering common interview questions. For a job in IT, you may have to answer more technical and competency-based questions. Keep a copy of the job description and your CV nearby, just in case you need to refer to it. Monster has many helpful interview tips to help you get prepared, along with commonly asked questions and how to answer them like an expert.

How Much Can You Earn from an IT Job?

Your pay will depend on many factors such as your qualifications and experience and the type of company you will be working for. Make sure you know your worth by researching what you can expect to be paid. On average, programmers and software development professionals in the UK make an average of £44,720 per year. However, this can rise considerably once you have gained significant experience in the industry.
