According to the Forfás Vacancy Overview Report, the most difficult to fill vacancies were for the ICT sector, primarily for professional roles in software development including software developers: cloud computing, Web development database (with Oracle/SQL), Java, JavaScript, C#, and .Net the most frequently mentioned. Based on significant industrial collaboration of the Department of Computer and Software Engineering graduate of the Artificial Intelligence for Cloud Computing stream are well placed to work in these roles. According to Irelands Skills Strategy 2025 (Department of Education and Skills) there are skills shortages for professionals and associate professionals across sectors in many areas of ICT. The shortage of ICT talent is potentially significant for a number of sectors where ICT skills are needed, in particular software development. Ireland is likely to face an average increase in demand for high-level ICT skills of around 5% a year with the employment of ICT professionals anticipated to rise to just over 91,000. This skills shortage has become increasingly acute as more and more tech companies expand their operations in Ireland.”
