I think Information Technology Jobs are still OK. But I think software sales have dropped... so it may also affect software development people such as programmers.

Yes there are lot of jobs but majority of jobless IT professionals can't even land one. Because expectations of nowadays employers are so high, they want you to have thousands of skills. They refuse to train and expects the employees to acquire skills themselves by investing their hard earned money like few thousands of dollars in some of the expensive computer learning centre like new horizons until he goes bankrupt or these employers like to poach the talented professional who is trained by another company. Nowadays employers are not willing to train they only like to poach poach poach talent from another company.
But on the good side is there are only few employers who are willing to train. My ex-employer is one of them, so I am thankful to them for giving me an opportunity. It is sad to see that there are only few good employers like this who are willing to train professional and leaving them into the market. Singapore should be proud to have these employers.
I hate employers who only like to poach and not willing to train. What if everybody wants to poach, there won't be enough talented or experienced IT professional in Singapore
