2. Data Science
Companies are in constant pursuit of understanding their results, and as such, data scientists have become increasingly in demand. The programming skills, statistics, machine learning, data wrangling, data intelligence and software engineering are some of the skills most needed by employers in a data scientist job.
Data analysis is the more entry-level talent, while data science is becoming more advanced, but the professions are cousins.
3. Machine Learning
Machine learning is one of the most innovative and exciting fields to step into the future which makes it one of the most valuable skills you can learn. There are a lot of applications for this revolutionary software, from Siri and Alexa to chatbots to predictive intelligence to self-driving cars.
Machine learning can be extended to all sectors like healthcare, education, finance and so on. Machine learning startups earned more funding in 2019 than all other cumulative AI programs.
4. Python
Python is one of today’s most common and coveted programming languages. Python helps developers to work on some of the highly common tech trends such as mobile and artificial intelligence. Many of the skills you need to become a Python Developer include Core Python expertise, web framework knowledge and analytical skills.
5. Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity remains one of the greatest problems for companies of all sizes, as they spend heavily to ensure they are safe. And if there was a time to start looking for a position in cybersecurity and the skills required for such positions, it would be now.

9. Internet of Things
In general, IT can be highly competitive for candidates, but one of the areas within IT is IoT, which has space for many more developers. IoT remains one of the world’s rising tech industries. IoT has yet to achieve its full potential, because there is a shortage of professional individuals in the field, according to Software.org.
It is possible to hack anything that is connected to the internet, which is why protection is one of the main concerns with these apps. Both California and the UK(2) recently implemented legislation to make IoT apps more safe and accessible. For this reason, it is possible that cybersecurity experts who are trained in IoT would be highly sought after.
10. Mobile Development
Mobile development skills are in high demand with the growing use of the smartphone from gaming to shopping. According to Statista, there were 4 billion unique users in the global mobile population, which is more than half of the world’s population using a smartphone. Mobile use continues to rise and growing, so investing in improving some skills in mobile could be a good idea. Android and iOS mobile developer skills are key mobile skills.
